Rhizosphere microorganisms mediate ion homeostasis in cucumber seedlings: a new strategy to improve plant salt tolerance
Enrichment with SiRMs played a pivotal role in maintaining ion homeostasis and significantly enhanced the salt tolerance of cucumber seedlings. These findings highlight the potential for microbial-assisted strategies to mitigate the adverse effects of soil salinity and provide valuable insights into the complex interplay between the microbial community and plant resilience from the perspective of ion balance.
