Overview of the Impact of Salinity-Alkali Stress on Quinoa's Physiological,Biochemical,and Metabolic Levels
The area of salt-affected land is continuously expanding,becoming a significant factor limiting agricultural development.Breeding and planting salt-tolerant crops is the most effective way to fully utilize salt-affected land and harness its production potential.Quinoa is a typical salt-tolerant plant,with many varieties displaying high salt tolerance.Selecting and breeding high-quality salt-tolerant quinoa varieties,and studying their salt tolerance mechanisms are crucial for the research and application of salt-tolerant crops,improving soil in salt-affected areas,and promoting the quinoa industry.This article reviews the effects of salt stress on quinoa seed germination,morphological development,salt content and stomata,photosynthesis,osmotic mechanisms,anti-oxidative systems,endogenous hormones,and alkaloids,aiming to provide a theoretical basis and reference for the breeding of new salt-tolerant quinoa varieties.
