CALLAGHAN, Australia, July 18 (TNSres) -- The University of Newcastle issued the following news:
Budding new plant biology research is paving the potential to produce food crops that not only survive but thrive in salty conditions.
With salt estimated to affect up to 30 per cent of arable land worldwide - jeopardising the survival of crops - the salinity crisis is a costly burden on agricultural productivity.
