Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBeyond Survival: The Unique Salt Secretion and Ion Homeostasis Mechanisms in Limonium bicolor Under Salt StressLinyang Wang, Pin Chen, Shuge TianSoil salinization poses a significant threat to global agriculture. Limonium bicolor, a recretohalophyte, has evolved a unique and efficient salt tolerance mechanism centered on epidermal salt glands for secreting excess salts. This review systematically synthesizes the multilevel salt tolerance strategies in Limonium bicolor, covering the structural basis of its multicellular salt glands, the molecular regulatory networks governing their development including … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 8 Sep 2026 · 791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrey-Catching Behaviour in Mudskippers and Toads: A Comparative AnalysisU. Kutschera, H. Burghagen, J. P. EwertThe invasion of land by a diverse group of fishlike amphibians during the Middle-Late Devonian was a key event in the history of life. It is obvious that the evolutionary transition from an aquatic to a terrestrial habitat was associated with physiological adaptations such as novel feeding strategies that can not be elucidated with fossils alone. Here we show that … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,639 accessesView PDFCite
