Comparison of seed germination and recovery responses of a salt marsh Halophyte halopeplis perfoliata to osmotic and ionic treatments
( Pakistan Botanical Society , 2016 , Article)Salinity affects seed germination of halophytes by inducing ionic toxicity, osmotic constraint or both. Information about the effects of salinity on seed germination of a large number of halophytes exists, but generally ... -
Effects of dissolved organic phase composition and salinity on the engineered sulfate application in a flow-through system
( Springer , 2020 , Article)Engineered sulfate application has been proposed as an effective remedy to enhance the rate-limited biodegradation of petroleum-hydrocarbon-contaminated subsurface environments, but the effects of dissolved organic phase ... -
Enhancement of Naphthalene Biodegradation by Sulfate Application in Brackish Subsurface Systems
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)Anaerobic biodegradation is the most dominant mechanism in the petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated subsurface systems. Due to depletion of terminal electron acceptors such as sulfate, anaerobic degradation of organic ... -
Expression Patterns Of Genes Encoding Antioxidative Enzymes In Date Palm(phoenix Dactylifera) In Response To Salinity Stress
( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2014 , Conference Paper)Background Salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses threatening crop productivity worldwide. Plants exposed to severe salinity suffer ionic toxicities, osmotic stress and oxidative damage that lead to inhibition of ... -
Genetic Associations Underpinning the Metabolite-Mediated Salt Stress Tolerance in Barley
( Springer Link , 2023 , Article)Salinity stress is one of the abiotic factors that greatly affect agriculture by limiting plant growth and yield worldwide. A set of 138 barley accessions from different geographical regions was characterized with the aim ... -
Grass Establishment, Weed Populations and Soil Microbial Succession in Turf Grass System as Influenced by Produced Water Irrigation
(2017 , Master Thesis)Agricultural water use is high in a world marred with water scarcity, thus necessitating alternative water resources such as wastewaters. This study attempted to use produced water (PW) to irrigate turf grass - Cynodon ... -
Influence of temperature, salinity and Mg:Ca ratio on microbially-mediated formation of Mg-rich carbonates by Virgibacillus strains isolated from a sabkha environment.
( Nature Research , 2019 , Article)Studies have demonstrated that microbes facilitate the incorporation of Mg into carbonate minerals, leading to the formation of potential dolomite precursors. Most microbes that are capable of mediating Mg-rich carbonates ... -
Preliminary insight into winter native fish assemblages in guadiana estuary salt marshes coping with environmental variability and non-indigenous fish introduction
( MDPI AG , 2017 , Article)This work aims to undertake a preliminary characterization of winter fish assemblages in the salt marsh areas of Guadiana lower estuary (South-East Portugal) and discusses the potential risks of habitat dominance by a ... -
Remote sensing of inland Sabkha and a study of the salinity and temporal stability for sustainable development: A case study from the West coast of Qatar
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)The inland sabkha of the Arabian Gulf is important to study for the occurrence of minerals, rocks, soil salinity, and stability of the sabkha due to the high demand for infrastructure and agriculture development region. ... -
Salinity Effects on Symbiodinium sp. growth rate in Controlled conditions and produced Biomass Biochemical Characterization
( Qatar University Press , 2021 , Poster)Salinity is an abiotic influencer to the growth and the efficiency of the algal Symbiodinium that coexists in symbiosis with corals. In light of the high salinity conditions that prevail in the Arabian Gulf including the ... -
Seed priming alleviates salt stress in two fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum l.) Cultivars
( United Arab Emirates University , 2022 , Article)Salinity is globally considered a widespread problem of the irrigated soils in arid and semi-arid areas. To minimize the negative effect of salinity seed priming technique is proved as a useful by improve germination and ... -
Sorption of benzene and naphthalene on (semi)-arid coastal soil as a function of salinity and temperature
( Elsevier B.V. , 2018 , Article)Considerable activities from the oil and natural gas sector have risen some concerns about the pollution of soil and groundwater by petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs) in (semi)-arid coastal regions. The understanding of the ... -
