Three white poplar clones (MA-104, MA-195 and O.Gherib), differing in their sensitivity to NaCl, were selected following a preliminary study. The young plants of these clones were subjected to three treatments: control, 3 g/l and 6 g/l of NaCl. A reduction-which varied according to the clones and salt concentrations-in height, diameter and total and compartmental biomass was observed in all three clones. At the leaf level, a reduction in leaf area and elongation rate, and an increase in epinasty, were also observed. However, these disturbances were less pronounced in plants of the MA-104 clone, indicating their greater salt tolerance compared with the other two clones. Similarly, the improved water-regulating behaviour of MA-104 resulted in the maintenance of the base, midday and recovery water potentials at relatively low levels, thereby helping to minimise the damage caused by salt. In contrast, the other two clones, particularly O.Gherib, suffered greater damage from salt.

Breeding Oilseed Crops for Sustainable Production: Opportunities and Constraints
<i> <p>Breeding Oilseed Crops for Sustainable Production: Opportunities and Constraints</i> presents key insights into accelerating the breeding of sustainable and superior varieties. </p> <p>The book explores the genetic engineering/biotechnology that has played a vital role in transforming economically important traits from distant/wild species to cultivated varieties, enhancing the quality and quantity of oil and seed yield production. Integrated nutrient management, efficient water management, and forecasting models for pests diseases outbreaks and integrated pest and pest management have also added new dimensions in breeding for sustainable production. With the rise in demand, the scientific community has responded positively by directing a greater amount of research towards sustainable production both for edible and industrial uses. </p> <p>Covering the latest information on various major world oil crops including rapeseed mustard, sunflower, groundnut, sesame, oilpalm, cotton, linseed/flax, castor and olive, this book brings the latest advances together in a single volume for researchers and advanced level students. </p>
