The consequences of increased salinity associated with soil drought on the soil–plant–air continuum. A, Main findings of Abdalla et al. (2022) regarding these consequences using tomato plants as a model species. Collected and modeled data are included. B, Dissipation in water potential throughout the soil–plant continuum under nonsaline and saline conditions at three soil water contents (SWCs) [Adapted from Abdalla et al. (2022), Figure 9]. C, Transpiration rate (E) at different SWCs (θ) and photosynthetic photon flux densities (μmol m⁻² s⁻¹) in nonsaline and saline-treated plants. E was obtained with (closed symbol) and without (red stars; NP) plant pressurization [Adapted from Abdalla et al. (2022), Figure 2].
