FOREWORD

Halophytes are a small but fascinating group of plants that have evolved tolerance to salt. Since much of the world is covered in seawater, a salt solution dominated by sodium chloride, it is not, perhaps, surprising that there are plants that are salt tolerant. What might be surprising is that the number of halophytes is only a few thousand out of more than 250,000 species of flowering plants. Although there are many marine algae and some flowering plants that live in seawater (the seagrasses), most terrestrial plants are not salt tolerant. This poses an interesting question: why cannot most terrestrial plants tolerate salt in the soil when the world is such a salty place and marine life is abundant? Before the evolution of terrestrial plants, all plants were aquatic and belonged to the Chlorophyta or the Streptophyta, groups that split about 1000 million years ago. Paleontological and molecular evidence suggests that the Characean algae within the Streptophyta gave rise to land plants, the embryophytes (bryophytes, pteridophytes and spermatophytes), during the Ordovician period, some 450 million years ago. Before land plants evolved, these Characean algae occupied both salt and fresh water habitats and so the question arises from which habitat terrestrial plants arose. Since any migrating to the land from a saline pool would have had to survive not only the very dry conditions of the atmosphere, but also the hyper-saline fringes of the pool, it can be argued that embryophytes are likely to have evolved from fresh-water algae. This being so, salt tolerance in halophytes is not an ancient trait, but must have developed during the evolutionary history of land plants, over the last 470 to 450 million years; this might explain why there are so few halophytes. Halophytes have been recognised since the 1700s and have been the subject of study into their ecology, physiology and biochemistry as well as their distribution amongst the families of flowering plants since that time. Research has shown that flowering plants in general show a continuous range of salt tolerance, from those halophytes that can complete their life cycle with regular inundation of seawater to very sensitive species such as chickpea unable to tolerate one tenth the seawater salt concentration. Drawing a dividing line in this continuum, to separate halophytes from other species (glycophytes), is somewhat arbitrary and different authors have placed that division at different salt concentrations - between about a third and a half the salt concentration in seawater. As a consequence, the number

1 of species that are classified as halophytes varies - but does still not exceed about 1-2% of the total number of flowering plants. So, halophytes are not particularly common, taking the whole range of plants into consideration. Halophytes have a number of adaptations that enable them to tolerate salt, from succulence to salt glands: salt tolerance is a complex trait physiologically and genetically. The complexity of salt tolerance in plants takes us back to asking if it evolved just once. The answer appears to be no. Recent studies suggest that halophytes have evolved on many occasions, but have rarely given rise to large lineages, suggesting that halophytism is a trait that bears a cost and so is often lost. One consequence of the complexity of salt tolerance is that is proving difficult to change the tolerance of the plants on which we depend for food. The world population has grown rapidly since the seventeenth century and now reached about seven billion people, all of whom have to be fed. The amount of food produced in the world, as estimated by the production of cereals, increased dramatically in the twentieth century as a consequence of the so-called ‘green revolution’. Since the 1980s, when the population was about 4.4 billion, the amount of food produced (cereals) has roughly kept pace with population growth. However, if the population is to increase from the current 7 billion to 10 billion by the end of this century, what was achieved in the green revolution will have to be repeated – and in a world with diminishing resources and increased climatic variability with increased salinisation of land. Consequently, we are going to need crops with greater salt tolerance than those we have at the present. It is here that knowledge of halophytes is vital. Marius Grigore has collected important information on halophytes growing in Romania. However, this book is much more than just a species list, it include a history of definitions of halophytes as well as a commentary on the history of halophytes in Romania. It is an important contribution to the literature on halophytes.

2 INTRODUCTION

Dealing with any aspect of a certain ecological group of plants could be a challenging business, due to the complexity of definitions, adaptive features and subtle ecological interrelations between plants and their environments. Halophytes represent no doubt a very heterogeneous group of plants; they are widely distributed in many families, as well occurring in various saline habitats (Grigore, 2011). The interest in the study of halophytes is still argued by theoretical reasons, and especially by the current context of human condition, regarded as a well-defined part of surrounding environment. Salinity has affected agriculture from millennia, having a deeply negative impact in agriculture and most likely, being involved in the fall of some ancient flourishing civilizations (Grigore and Toma, 2010a). A short description of the current scenario we are facing can help to get a large picture of the past, present and future in the agricultural history. The Earth’s total surface area covers about 13.2 billion ha, but no more than 7 billion ha are arable and 1.5 billion are cultivated (Massoud, 1981). Of the cultivated lands, about 340 million ha (23%) are saline (salt- affected) and another 560 million ha (37%) are sodic (sodium-affected) (Tanji, 2002). Here are many different projections, suggesting that human population will increase over 8 billion by the year 2020 that will worsen the current scenario about food insecurity (Athar and Ashraf, 2009). There are often not sufficient reservoirs of freshwater available and most of the agronomical used irrigation systems are leading to a permanent increase in soil-salinity and slowly to growth conditions unacceptable for most of the common crops (Koyro et al., 2009). A global study of land use over 45 years found that 6 % had become saline (Ghassemi et al., 1995). Soil salinity expands, and some studies suggest that this process is almost irreversible and difficult to control. In Australia alone, 2 million ha have become saline since clearing began a century ago, and another 15 million ha are at risk of becoming saline in the next 50 years. Irrigation systems are especially prone to salinization; about half the existing irrigation systems of the world are under the influence of salinization, alkalization or waterlogging (Szabolcs, 1994). Irrigation schemes cover only 15 % of the world’s agricultural land (227 million ha in 1987), but as irrigated land has at least twice the productivity of rain-fed land. On the other hand, it is well known that the actual population of the world has about 6.7 billion people,

3 but according to some calculations, in 2050 this could reach 9.5 billion value. According to a FAO Repport (2007), despite unprecedented global economic growth, 1.1. bilion people continue to live in extreme poverty and more than 850 milion people suffer from chronic hunger while ecosystems are being threatened as never before. Not accidentally the first goal of The Millennium Development Goals Report (ONU Published, 2008) is to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger. So, salinity is one of the most severe environmental factors limiting the productivity of agricultural crops, because most crops are sensitive to salinity induced by high concentrations of salts in the soil (Pitman and Lauchli, 2002). The cost of salinity to agriculture was estimated to be about 12 billion USD per year (Ghassemi et al., 1995), but perhaps this value will be greater, since it is expected that soil salinity shall increase continuously. This brief presentation of data suggests that salt tolerant plants should be taken into consideration, since they could play an important role in biosaline agriculture (Grigore and Toma, 2010a). The potential use of salt tolerant plants in the context of future agriculture strictly requires a good knowledge of species that might be used as crops or other resources; understanding their salt tolerance mechanisms and ecology also would be a sine qua non condition for introducing these taxa in agricultural practices. The main objective of this book is to collate data referring on Romanian salt tolerant plants and to review the literature which has been published over more than last century in botanical field. The writing of this book has taken much longer than I intended and many of my ideas have evolved in keeping with the format and progress of the book. The history of this work dates back to 4 years ago when I started to publish and promote books in a series that I wanted to be included in a new botanical discipline, called Halophytology. The topics covered in this book range from discussions about halophytes definitions and classifications to a large list with salt tolerant plants growing in Romania. However, since the terms “halophytes” and “salt tolerant plants” are often interchangeable, I would invite readers of this book to also have in their mind the term “plants susceptible of being salt tolerant.” This is because everything dealing with salinity is, in some extent, problematic; perhaps avoiding general and radical statements about halophytes would be the most acceptable strategy.

4 I would like to acknowledge the generosity of Tim Flowers, University of Sussex, for writing a Foreword for this book. His advices and ideas about halophytes were very invaluable for me. I am also sincerely indebted to Professor Monica Tereza Boşcaiu Neagu, Universidad Politecnica de Valencia, Spain, and to Professor Suzana Kratovalieva, Institute of Agriculture Skopje, Republic of Macedonia for their consistent suggestions and indications in reviewing the manuscript. My special thanks also go to lecturer Ciprian Mânzu, Alexandru Ion Cuza University, Faculty of Biology Iasi, Romania, for reviewing the book and providing comments in such a positive light. I am also appreciative of the support he has given me during field trips looking for halophytes.

5 GENERAL SCIENTIFIC BACKGROUND

1. Learning from the previous attempt to create a Romanian salt tolerant plants database

In 2008, we published a list with Romanian salt tolerant plants (Grigore, 2008a), or plants susceptible to be salt tolerant. This compilation, derived mainly from data extracted from Romanian literature, has revealed that the number of salt tolerant plants depends, inevitably, on definitions and characterizations attributed to halophytes by various authors. In Romania, the experience and background in working with halophytes are quite limited, at least in terms of physiological and experimental approach. In time, this tendency was accompanied by quite abundant floristic and basic ecological work. This trend was supported by an intuitive and ecological definition of halophytes, strictly related to saline environments. Anyway, the botanical works focused only on halophytes are limited. There are two difficulties when choosing the criteria used for including species in this database. First, ecological definitions are versatile and to some extent arbitrary. Second, this type of definitions had to be correlated with the habitats where these species vegetate and where they have been observed and collected by botanists. Here again occurs a problem. Although the Romanian language associated with hipersaline environments is scarce compared to others, botanists used a non-technical term (Grigore, 2008b) when referring to this general type of ecosystem (sărătură). In addition, even when terms that are more precise were adopted from soil science (i.e., saline and alkali soils) to be used by botanists, they actually mistook them for the older, non-technical term. In this way, a restricted and strong “tradition” in relation with definitions of halophytes and saline environments was created and preserved over time. At that time, we selected from Romanian literature those species designated by different authors as halophytes lato sensu (see also Table 1) and/or those species found in saline environments. When a botanist said that a certain species vegetates in a saline habitat, we had to rely, a priori, on this assertation. Summarizing, the faced difficulties were the following: A. the lack of a precise (and idealistically a single) definition of halophytes; B. problems with the definition and features of saline environments;

6 C. possible misidentifications of several species growing in a certain habitat; D. special nomenclatural situations due to some periods in Romanian history; E. subjectivity of some Romanian botanists when offering some ecological notes; F. gathering data;

Nevertheless, these inherent difficulties are still persistent and they always would lead to imperfections in collate data regarding salt tolerant plants.

A. The lack of a precise (and idealistically a single) definition of halophytes

There are many definitions of halophytes1; some of these were recently summarized and discussed by us (Grigore et al., 2010), when we tried to pay attention to the huge diversity of the origin and nature of halophyte definitions. We were able to conclude that existing definitions are based on ecological, physiological and biochemical criteria and sometimes there are consistent variations or combinations of these criteria. Although they have certainly been recognized since the time of Goethe (ca. 1790, cf. Flowers et al, 1986), halophytes were taken into scientific attention through the papers of Schimper (1891; 1898) and especially Warming (1895; 1897; 1906; 1909). Although halophytes have been recognized for hundreds of years, their definition remains equivocal (Flowers and Colmer, 2008). There were many of halophytes’ definitions; some of them reflect the scientific background of the researchers who define these plants. In the same time, we can notice a “historical” evolution regarding the halophytes, taking into account the accumulated data in their biology. But why is it so difficult to define such a “simple” term? The definition of halophytes is manifold. This fact is explained by the following considerations (Grigore et al., 2010):

1 At this time, we are still using the term “halophyte” to facilitate the reading of the text. Actually, according to our opinion, halophytes are not perfect synonyms with salt tolerant plants. See further paragraphs.

7 1. Halophytes are in fact a heterogeneous ecological group of plants; high salinity was not the one factor “building” the history of these plants, several additional ecological factors contributed to their evolution. So, describing halophytes only in relation to salinity could be reductionist. Researchers working on various aspects of halophytes adopted them unilaterally. This is, of course, natural if we think about their "professional" expertise in halophytes. It seems logical that an approach following one single criterion often leads to acceptance and internalization of a single standard-definition, which scientists take into account in their research. This is one of the reasons explaining why each author has given a specific definition of halophytes, a definition with a personal “signature” in a certain context that preserved after for several decades; 2. The concept of salinity itself and hence the concept of saline habitats are relative and ambiguous. The term salinity it is not, per se, a biological one; thus, the scenario could become complicate, when adopted by other natural science. Ecologically speaking, we think that halophytes must be considered all species that vegetate in saline habitats (Grigore, 2008a; 2008b; Grigore and Toma, 2010a). This definition seems simple and accessible but only at first, because saline habitats are again imprecisely defined; 3. As knowledge about halophytes has been progressively accumulated, the directions of research have expanded and deepened accordingly. At the beginnings, attention was focused on their ecology and distribution. This quite simple interest was based mainly on intuition, allowing some correlations with morpho-anatomical adaptations to be done. But gradually, many aspects focused on physiology, salt tolerance, cellular and molecular biology or genetics were revealed. This new context has not provided the “ideal” premises, which would have lead to a convergence in unifying the halophytes definition. Moreover, it amplified the number of definitions. Sometimes, in sciences, new discoveries deepen the old findings, a “good” opportunity to open new challenges; 4. Another problem arises from the fact that there is a semantic field related to halophytes (especially regarding their classification). This filed is made up of different terms, formulated by different authors; but sometimes these terms are synonymous with each other. Some previous terms were adopted by further researchers and in a way the “new” terminology does mean the halophyte semantics clarifies.

8 Halophyte literature often show that the tendency to get synonyms or translating when translating various terms main meaning of such terms get diluted. Conceivably, in several situations, the impossibility of translating a specialized term from a source language by a single term in a target language, “forced” the researcher to translate it by an expression of more than one term. It shows the “historical” evolution of a language related to halophytes terminology. In the Table 1, we can notice some examples of semantic fields occurring in English and Romanian languages.

Table 1. Semantic field with different words related to halophytes (after Grigore, 2010)

Romanian English Halofite; plante de sărătură; Halophytes; salt tolerant plants; plante halofile; plante iubitoare salt plants; high salinity tolerant de săruri; plante de locuri plants; salt loving plants; sărate. halophylous plants; halophytic plants; maritime plants

For instance, some authors tried to translate the term halophytes (the simplest and following the old Greek etymology) by salt tolerant plants. It is obvious that according to most definitions, all halophytes are salt tolerant plants, but perhaps many glycophytes have some mechanisms assuring them a certain degree of tolerance (or resistance) to salinity. In addition, using a term such as high salinity tolerant plants conducts inevitably, to the context in which the reader must to guess what “high salinity tolerance” could mean. Ecological groups of plants designed by names formed with – phyte (phyton = plant, in old Greek) preceded by prefixes such as hydro-, xero-, meso-, halo-, psychro-, and so forth were used as a simple but precise way in order to delineate different plants, according to their affinity for a main ecological factor. Things became a little bit complicated when this standard way of designating ecological classes has been modified and replaced by words such as: hydrophilous, xerophilous, halophilous plant, which literally means “water/drought/salt loving plant”. This would imply a close interrelations between plants and the corresponding ecological factor, despite several variations that may occur within. Therefore, a discrete semantic alteration from the basic meaning occured, and ever since a sort of ambivalence dominated these new given names.

9 For instance, halophylous plant means salt loving plants, but sometimes I found sentences with halophytes and salt stress in the same context. This would appear as a paradox, since a plant loving (preferring) salinity (understood of course as high salinity) could not be stressed by the same factor it loves. Table 1 shows that the diversity of associated language is greater and even ambiguous. Few botanists have drawn into discussion these semantic problems and their collateral implications. The terms included in Table 1 are not synonyms, at least not perfect synonyms. 5. Not in the least, we must say that there are some difficulties working in experimental conditions, when efforts for establishing salt tolerance thresholds are carried out. The experimental scheme never reproduces completely the natural conditions, where the environmental factors are always variable. The intensity and variability of these factors are less predictable; in the lab, we can choose the intensity of salinity we want to test, but in the natural ecosystem, the salinity and hydric status of the soil are not constant. One of the most important attribute of halophytes is their salinity tolerance. This property of halophytes seems to provide to euhalophytes real advantages for the competition with sensitive plants (glycophytes) (Koyro et al., 2006). Unfortunately, the many available definitions especially for salinity tolerance (threshold of salinity tolerance) make a uniform description and the comparisons between species complicated (Koyro et al., 2006). This is because: a. Phytosociologists are using this term only for plant growing naturally in saline habitats. In the field, phytosociologists need to get quick information on salinity tolerance; the vegetation analysis is very useful and salinity tolerance numbers are widely applied for qualitative approximations (Ellenberg, 1974); b. Other scientists describe salinity tolerance by polygonal diagrams of the mineral composition in plants; c. The salinity tolerance threshold is described in some definitions as the point (salt concentration) when the ability of plants to survive and to reproduce is no longer assured (Pasternak, 1990). Anyway, attention should be paid to the fact that survival and reproduction of a plant are not always impeded at the same level of salinity (Tazuke, 1997); d. However, the definition of Pasternak (1990) is fairly important for the interpretation of ecological dissemination and can be used as a reliable basis for physiological studies on the survival strategies of plants;

10 e. Generally, classification of the salinity tolerance of crop species (glycophytes) is based on the threshold of electrical conductivity and the percentage of yield decrease beyond the threshold (Greenway and Munns, 1980). Often, salinity tolerance is assessed as the percentage of biomass production in saline versus control conditions over a prolonged period of time (Munns, 2002). The substrate-concentration leading to a growth decrease of 50 % (in terms of fresh weight, in comparison to plants without salinity) is largely used by ecophysiologists as a definition for salinity tolerance threshold. This approach is also arbitrary, to some extent, but it leads to a precise specification of a comparative value for halophytic species and is especially relevant in applications, such as economic potentials of suitable halophytes; f. One definition can be also given referring on glycophytes; especially in agriculture, it is very common to speak of salinity tolerance if a variety of a glycophytes, such as Hordeum vulgare survives at a higher salinity level than another variety of the same species. However, the tolerated NaCl- substrate concentrations are in both varieties far beyond seawater salinity (Amzallag, 1994; Jeschke et al., 1995).

A short historical evolution of Halophytes definition

Recently, several definitions of halophytes have been summarized and discussed in a historical context (Grigore et al., 2010), which draws a good picture of the evolution of some concepts according to various stages and visions of authors defining halophytes (Table 2).

Nowadays, we know that this is a group of halophytes accumulating salts, in contrast with those secreting it. Salt – loving plants (are in the Barnes (1898) Many plant ecologists most of their characters, strikingly consider halophytes a

Species of saline and alkaline Clements (1907) Saline and/or alkaline soils soils (salt plants) are terms more precise than other words designating saline environments. A certain amount of soluble salts Warming (1909) How precise the term must be present before halophytic “certain” could be? vegetation is called into existence Plants which grow where the Bower (1911) In fact, always the soil water contains salt; the effect solution contains “salt”; the upon them is seen in their fleshy issue is concentration.

Strand plants, or Halophytes, Ganong (1913) We must discriminate that living along the margin of salt not all halophytes are strand water, and therefore condensed plants; they could appear and otherwise adapted to the also in the inland salt difficult absorption thereof marshes/areas. Halo-philous/phytes, plants of Willis (1919) Here we can notice the sea-coasts and salt-steppes, where introduction of the presence of salt, by checking “physiological drought” absorption, compels a reduction hypothesis characterizing of transpiration saline soils. This is “famous” for a certain period of plant ecology (see Grigore and Toma, 2010b). Plants which at any stage of their Stocker (1928) The salt concept is life are subjected to a ambiguous one (see the concentration of salt, which is discussions above). It is more than “normal” glycophytic difficult to establish if the plants can bear without dying plants are exposed all the time to salt, at any stage of their life-cycle.

Salinity is a very changeable ecological factor: choosing a number for drawing a line between two different plant groups could be hazardous. Plants that can tolerate the Oosting (1948) concentrations of salts found in saline soils are termed halophytes Plants tolerant of various mineral Lawrence (1951) salt in the soil solution, usually sodium chloride. Plants growing on salinized media Bucur et al.

A glance cast to definitions in the Table 2 reveals that there is only a vague uniformity in defining halophytes. Often, a new definition is in fact an older definition with amendments and additions, so the “paternity” of a definition could be obscure. Despite the large number of definitions attributed to halophytes (and this table is not, of course, exhaustive) some general conclusons could be drawn:

16 1. Many definitions are in fact only terms composed by an adjective and a noun (see Table I). There is nothing to be detailed, about the “salt” concept we extended in the above paragraphs. These definitions are very simple, if we ponder in-depth about salt and salinity; 2. Some definitions could be considered as “ecological,” every time the plants are correlated with saline habitats. It seems very logical when taking into consideration that we deal with an ecological group of plants. Sometimes, the authors talk about the condition of “completing life cycle” characterizing halophytes. Here, some additional comments are required. Complete life cycle means, of course, that the plant needs to flowering, in order to produce with seeds. These will germinate and thus will ensure the plant survival and its stability in a given habitats. Germination in a saline environment is a very delicate and sensitive issue regarding halophytes biology (see Ungar, 1991 and references therein). We think that the halophytes definitions including the absolute necessity to completing the entire life cycle must be discussed with caution. It is well known that the success of halophyte populations, especially for annuals that have only one opportunity in their life history to reproduce is greatly dependent on seed germination responses (Ungar, 1991). Seed germination for most halophytes occurs during periods of the year when soil salinity levels are reduced (Ungar, 1978). In addition, laboratory investigations with halophytes suggest that optimal germination percentages are usually found in nonsaline conditions. Anyway, it must be emphasized that generally, the seeds of halophytes can tolerate higher salinity concentrations than those of glycophytes. In a salt marsh the halophytes must adopt therefore different survival strategies. It was shown that the majority of salt marsh species are perennial and in fact, relatively few species of annuals have become adapted to the true salt marsh habitat (Ranwell, 1972). This would imply that perennial halophytes, having rhizomes, for instance, would be able to assure the persistence at a location on the salt marsh for several decades. So, they would be able to survive in a saline habitat, without “completing the entire life cycle” (hypothetically, without flowering, producing seeds which will germinate generating seedlings);

17 3. Some of the above definitions induce a subtle nuance: halophytes are those species growing in saline habitats only (or in conditions of an excess of salts, high levels of salt or plants that need a high concentration of salts in their media for an optimal growth). This is, more likely, a definition of euhalohytes (obligatory halophytes). However, we think that this could be also a hazardous or even reductionist definition. There are still many discussions regarding the “absolute” requirement of these species for a high salt content and the remaining types of halophytes would be eliminated. We have to think in terms of arbitrary and relativity when making such assertations. In fact, there is a continuous flow of adaptations to salinity in a saline environment and it would be better to leave behind certain limits when including halophytes in one or another category; 4. Some definitions could be regarded as “physiological” ones. Establishing a numerical boundary between halophytes and glycophytes could be useful for a standardization, but perhaps many of these definitions are the result of experimental approaches, when the natural situation is completely different. Nevertheless, the value of these definitions should not be denied, especially when we need to compare different species in terms of their salinity tolerance.

B. Problems with the definition and features of saline environments

The diversity of Romanian saline environments, although lower than those of other countries (i.e., from tropics), is not related to a precise word/term, describing this type of habitat. For many decades, working with halophytes was exclusively a botanist’s work, so they simply correlated the salt tolerant plants with corresponding ecosystems. As they were not soil scientists, the “interest” in giving an accurate definition of salinized ecosystems was irrelevant. The earliest and most common term to be used by all plant scientists will be “sărătură,” a quite vague term not strictly belonging to soil science. It has been used since the 19thy century. This term is almost impossible to be translated in English; perhaps the expression “salt(y) area” would be most appropriate, since the Romanian word is used both for maritime salty areas, as well for inland salinized surfaces. It is tricky to translate it by “salt marsh”, which is a common term used in Anglo-Saxon languages.

18 This is because from ecological point of view, the term “marsh” suggests a habitat closely related to water and/or soil humidity. The Romanian term was and is still used also for a dry salinized habitat, so, to some extent, there will be a minor ecological error to translate by “salt marsh.” The etymology of this term seems to be quite old, literally meaning something somehow “salty.” The Latin word “sal, salis” seems to be appropriate, but further documentation will provide data that are more accurate. Besides, the Romanian term is not a scientific one, per se. It does not belong either to Plant Sciences, or to Soil Sciences. For instance, even when mentioned in monographs dealing with saline and alkali soils from Romania, the word is written between inverted commas, and defined as: “a soil whose fertility is strongly affected by the high content of soluble salt from its profile, by the presence of changeable sodium and by the presence of mineralized water located in the shallow depth of the soil” (Sandu, 1984). Environmental conditions in Romania provide a scarcer vocabulary to be used when describing the salinized ecosystems. The naturally salinized areas from Romania can be classified as fallow: inland and littoral salinized areas. Those from inland could be dry (with steppic conditions) and wet (salt marshes, stricto sensu), sometimes located near to salty lakes. Those from littoral are confined to seashore and in the proximity of salty lakes and regularly display a specific halophytic flora, slightly different from that of inland saline areas. Usually, botanists were evaluating the salinized ecosystems following some “macroscopic” features of soil and vegetation and sometimes they were evidencing the apparent character of indicators species, thus suggesting a hypersaline environment. Nevertheless, in fact, when a botanist (often a taxonomist) cited a certain species as occurring on a salinized area (sărătură), no implicitly precise data about this ecosystem was given.

C. Possible misidentifications of several species growing in a certain habitat

Some salt-related species included in tis database run the risk of possible misidentifications made by several authors in time. Several genera are challenging in terms of taxonomy (Puccinellia, Artemisia, several chenopods species, especially those succulent and articulated).

19 Sometimes literature on some genera was scarce and even confusing and botanists might have been disoriented trying to identify them. The status of several species has also changed; often a species is given as a genus species of a in some works (identification key manuals), and as subspecies, in others. In other situations, it is possible that botanists might have been using some foreign identification keys manuals where species were described and classified. Some of them had certainly various synonyms, but the nomenclature of a given species from there was different from that of other manuals. In this ways, it is possible that the same species to be identified as different taxa by various botanists. A typical example is that of Artemisia maritima L., that actually does not grows in Romania (Oprea, 2005; Ciocârlan, 2009), but for many years it has been mentioned in numerous papers; sometimes, following a tendency to find a synonym, this species has been included in or assimilated by Artemisia santonica L. (a different species). In other situations, several nomenclatural mixtures became possible: subspecies of A. santonica are included among subspecies of A. maritima and so forth. Other intriguing species are those included in Chenopodiaceae2, especially those articulated (“leafless”) which impose some problems because a lot of work is required to find them in or after producing fruits and seeds (an important character of diagnosis). Perhaps some botanists identified them by vegetative features only, rather than by reproductive ones, and in this way, some misidentifications occurred. My personal experience, carried out with Sarcocornia and Arthrocnemum species from Spain revealed the importance of identify some important and relevant morphological characters visible only after producing seeds, which would strength the real diagnosis of these genera. Sometimes, few botanists, working at the beginning of 20thy century, referred to “forms” and described them as ecotypes – in relation to some variations of ecological factors. But at the end of their descriptions, they added an author’ name to the “forms,” thus suggesting that they were talking about a species, stricto sensu. In this way, confusion might have been occurred, since the limit between species and ecotype is not clearly marked.

2 In this work, we maintain the Chenopodiaceae apart from , according to Romanian nomenclature, despite the fact that some nomenclature systems included Chenopodiaceae in Amaranthaceae.

20 D. Special nomenclatural situations due to some periods in Romanian history

The geopolitical surface of Romania underwent changes in the last century. After the Second World War (1939-1945), Romania lost important surfaces, its total area decreasing. In this way, several works in halophytes carried out before the War had to be regarded in that historical context. It is expected that some species mentioned only in those lost areas to be seriously reconsidered in the present. This situation is available for those important botanical works conducted before the War. Actually, not accidentally, several species have not been mentioned anymore after that. For the purposes of this paper, this consideration is extremely relevant, since a part of great masterpieces in halophytes have been written before 1939.

E. Subjectivity of some Romanian botanists when providing ecological notes

This is perhaps the most important problem we were facing trying to collate the existing data on halophytes. Logically, botanists correlated salt tolerant plants by their natural environments. From here, many hazardous issues arose, because various authors differently evaluated the ecological traits of salinized ecosystems. For instance, we found that many species are cited in a habitat that was described as more or less, moderately, intensely, sometimes – salinized, and so forth. Such expressions are exposed to a certain degree of subjectivity. There is no way to “convert” these assertions into numerical data, which would contribute to a more appropriate picture of saline environments. The approximations regarding some ecological factors in the field are more or less arbitrary. Another situation we found is the following: a plant association is related to salty areas and is described accordingly. However, in its detailed description, not all the given species are explicitly correlated with salinity; no doubt, many of them are facultative or accidentally halophytes, but this is a deduction made by us. These species were anyway included in this list. A survey of referred literature leads us to the conclusion that this situation is quite common. Based mainly on intuition and naturalistic background, many botanists were used with this kind of approximation.

21 F. Gathering data

Comparatively to other countries, we cannot say precisely that Romanian data regarding halophytes and saline habitats are relatively scarcer than those of other countries. Anyway, in Romania the “Halophyte problem”, stricto sensu (see Chapman’s expression, 1936) does not pay so much attention as elsewhere. Apart from several important authors who focused mainly on the halophytes taxonomy and ecology (Prodan, 1922; 1939; Ţopa, 1939; Bucur, 1957; 1960; 1961; Şerbănescu, 1965; Pătruţ, Pop, Ioan, 2005), there were few concerns in studying other aspects of halophytes biology. Generally, the large majority of plant scientists referring on halophytes were taxonomists who mention halophytes species only as a part of their general work. The number of those works is even impressive and Romania has a deep botanical tradition in floristic approaches.

Masterpieces in Romanian halophytes In fact, these monographs are the main sources of information for this compilation, mainly for ecological considerations. They are either chapters in some books, either separate works focused only on halophytes and especially on their ecology.

Iuliu Prodan, the earliest halophytes’ ecologist Prodan, in an extensive study (1922) and further in one chapter (1939) gave some consistent ecological information about Romanian halophytes. These are of a great value and the ecological notes related to a huge number of halophytes are provided in a deep, holistic manner. He described approximately 184 species (1922), and in the other work (1939) mentioned about 281 salt tolerant plant species. But here is no attempt to classify the halophytes and neither in 1939, when a ”rudimentary” classification is included, he did not use a nominal, “standardized” classification of halophytes. Prodan included halophytes in: “first, second and third” category of halophytes. Therefore in the “first category” are included species that “grow exclusively in salt areas and only exceptionally in other places”. Plants added in “the second category” represent “the species which besides salty areas can also vegetate in certain habitats (waters, marshes, sands)”. The “third category” comprises species that “grow in other environments and can pass only rarely or exceptionally in saline areas.”

22 Fortunately, based on clear information, we were able to establish a system of equivalency between this classification and further attempts to classify them (see next paragraphs and Table 4). In addition, we should emphasize that Prodan weas perhaps the first Romanian botanist who scientifically drew attention on the possibility to ameliorate saline soils. Going even deeper, he foreseen the great importance from Fabaceae in order to phytoremediate salt-affected areas. This earlier observation is brilliant, if correlated to the observation that these ecosystems are poor in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. In the present, we well know the special role played by Fabaceae in nitrogen cycle. It is also worth noting that Prodan accurately described the relationships of several woody species (or shrubs) with salinity. Based on his field observations, he indicated species of Ulmus, Quercus, Morus as vegetating on saline areas; apart from the relativity of his ecological notes in this direction, several given details are of great importance. He foresaw – without any experimental data – that salt concentration and the position of root system in the soil would be the key of occurrence and survival of such species in salinized ecosystems. He also underlined that seed germination is induced after rainy periods, when salts are more diluted thus allowing to seedlings to survive; after developing the rooting system, these woody species would prefer more elevated areas to the periphery of salt marshes, in order to avoid the high salinity conditions from the center of ecosystem. These early observations (made in 1922) are very important in order to understand his holistic and anticipatory vision about halophytes ecology.

Emilian Ţopa, the creator of the first modern halophytes’ classification

His work in halophytes (1939, briefly revised in 1954) is very valuable, because is one of the few monographs focused on distribution of salinized areas (saraturi), their halophylous vegetation, and ecology. It is perhaps the first Romanian work where the “standard” classification of halophytes is explicitly given with appropriate definitions.

23 Thus, halophytes are classified according to their response to salinity in: obligatory, preferential, supporting, and accidental halophytes (this classification is also mentioned by Waisel, 1972 in his monograph). However, unfortunately, the Romanian author is not very clear about the origin of this classification; reading the text is difficult to affirm if this classification is original or perhaps was adopted from other authors. Some footnotes in his thesis could suggest that at least a part of these “classic” terms were previously used by several botanists. Anyway, the way of approaching and describing these halophytes groups are very accurate and logical. Actually, this was the language that was adopted and used by most of further Romanian botanists. Of course, some of them have used other classifications, but not Romanian as origin; sometimes, they have modified this basic Ţopa’s basic classification and used it accordingly. He defines obligatory halophytes as those plants growing in salty habitats requiring a considerable salts amount for their development, at least for a short period of the year. The preferential halophytes prefer the saline environments where they find the “optimal living conditions”; the supporting halophytes endure the salts but do not manage to compete with local vegetation; the accidental halophytes rich accidentally the salty habitats, but are not able to survive there. ● These halophytes definition and classification given by Ţopa are very interesting and relevant, because they show the logic and correspondent relation of halophytes with soil salinity. They seem to be an etymological characterization of halophyte classes (see our underlining above). Anyway, we consider the expression “preferential halophytes” a little bit inconvenient; we believe that all halophytes (as their etymology emphasizes) prefer a relatively high salt concentration in soil solution, in respect with glycophytes. In this context, despite the fact that “preferential halophytes” show an inferior graduation, the expression could be confusing. Moreover, the “optimal living conditions” is again a very difficult defining term. To the rest, the “supporting” and “accidental” classifications correspond to a close reality plants-soil. ● We believe that the “obligatory” term, related to halophytes represents also a imprecise and equivocally definition. For instance, Bucur (1957) suggests the use of “obligate” and not “obligatory” expression (!). Our opinion is that both the adjectives are not really adequately chosen. Following the Ţopa’s work, there was a gap in the monographic study of halophytes, albeit many floristic papers including references about halophytes have been conducted in parallel.

24 Nicolae Bucur, geniality and vision in an isolated geopolitical environment

Bucur’s and collaborators work in halophytes (1957b; 1960a,b; 1961) is by far the most significant from all papers ever written in Romania. Perhaps this would deserve a distinct chapter, but this is not the place for it. The paragraphs dedicated to this brilliant work are meant to rse awareness of the great importance and implications in halophytes knowledge. This research was conducted in order to establish the halophytic degree (affinity of plant species for soil salinity) in a huge number of plants naturally growing in saline areas from Jijia-Bahlui. Thus, a number of over 400 (!) salt tolerant plants have been investigated in relation to their corresponding salinity from rhizosphere. For this purpose, the salinity in the rhizosphere of every found species was measured by two distinct methods, each one applied in different variants. In this way, they were able to identify the salinity threshold of each species (minimal, optimal and maximal values). In addition, several patterns in the plant behavior in terms of salinity level were clearly and logically described. Finally, based on these consistent data, a new completely original system of halophytes’ classifications has been proposed (Table 3). This classification is perhaps among the most consistent and harmonious of all existing worldwide. Many systems of classifications are based on arbitrary criteria (see extended comments in Grigore, 2008b), also taking into consideration the numerical values chosen for describing the thresholds of salinity where halophytes are to be included. Moreover, with respect to other major classifications previously made by Prodan (1939) and Ţopa (1939; 1954), we figured a system to harmonize all these classifications (Table 4). This is useful for understanding the ecological descriptions included in the main part of our work. Going deeply and having many data at its disposal, Bucur and collaborators proposed some hierarchies within euhalophytes (Table 5) and neohalophytes (Table 6), in respect to soil salinization degree. These specifications are also relevant for the ecological description given by Bucur et al. (1960a, 1961).

25

Table 3. Classification of halophytes according to Bucur and collaborators (1957a) HALOPHYTES 1. Euhalophytes: halophytes (Plants vegetating on saline strictly adapted to salinity environments) (strictly obligate to salinity) are exclusively preferential and grow only on salinized environments, with the entire or a part of radicular system, both as seedlings and as mature plants; 2. Neohalophytes: plants able to adapt to salinity; plants to be adapted to halophytic environment; they are supporting and preferential, living both on non-salinized and salinized media, with the entire or a part of radicular system. NON-HALOPHYTES Plants non-adapted to salinized media, (Plants that not grow on saline non-tolerant to high concentrations of environments) salinity. In relation to concentrations more than 30-40 % milligrams of soluble salts, they could be tolerant and preferential.

(1957a) (1939) (1954) “first obligatory obligatory euhalophytes category” “second preferential Facultative category” supporting halophytes HALOPHYTES (plants able neohalophytes to adapt to salinity) “third accidental Supporting (tolerant to salinity) NON- category” HALOPHYTES

Unfortunately, the results of Bucur and collaborators work are completely unknown by the foreign scientific community. When some authors cite Romanian papers, they usually refer to Ţopa’s classification (1939), as Waisel (1972) does, despite the fact that this is not the most relevant and persistent classification ever made by a Romanian botanist.

27 Post-Bucur era in Romanian halophytes-related works

After the Second World War, in Romania the Communist Party got installed. One of the major objectives of its policy was agriculture, so from that moment on many efforts to improve this integrant part of economy have been done. This included also the salinized areas as a potential source for extending the arable surface of the country. However, it required a good knowledge of these ecosystems, so, together with soil science studies regarding the salinized lands, plenty botanical works in studying halophytes have been done. Actually, the research carried out by Bucur and collaborators could be included in this economical strategy. After Bucur only the work of Şerbănescu (1965) is worth noting, whose research on halophytic associations in relation to soil’ salinization type are of great interest. He classified these associations in: chloruric, sodic and sulphatic, based on predominant ions found in the soil solution.

2. How this book has been written and how to read it

Apart from these major already discussed works in halophytes (Prodan, 1922, 1939; Ţopa 1939, 1954; Bucur et al., 1957, 1960a, 1961; Şerbănescu, 1965) we used as inputs all available papers dealing generally with Romanian vegetation, where some mentions of salt tolerant plants and saline environments have been done. Of course, the list with these papers is not exhaustive. We are seeking for other new inputs. We selected from some papers all species explicitly mentioned as vegetating in saline environments; we also included those that are not so clearly correlated with saline media. In this case, we extracted them from the general context suggesting that a species is related (in a way or other) to salinity. As a general rule, less halophytic are cited by few authors, thus weakening the affinity for a high level of salinity. All species with corresponding data have been included in a table that has the follow structure:

As far as we know, it was mentioned only by Prodan (1922, 1939), within „modern” 78 halophytes’ ecologists. Anyway, no species of Arthrocnemum was included by Ciocârlan (2009); Oprea (2005) mentioned this species as synonym of A. macrostachyum (Moric.) K. Koch. Anyway, in the

Species Authors with cited Life Halophyte Habitat / Salinity Others species/Synonyms form type/ecological type Ecological tolerance spectrum 1. measured on soil surface 2. measured on the top of roots (% mg soluble salts) ecological description of this species made by Prodan (1922), it is clearly specified that is a perennial species with 79 lignified branches, and inflorescence divided by „scars”. This is a subtle but important observation. I observed in Spain – dealing with succulent articulated chenopods - that these „scars” are of great

Species Authors with cited Life Halophyte Habitat / Salinity Others species/Synonyms form type/ecological type Ecological tolerance spectrum 1. measured on soil surface 2. measured on the top of roots (% mg soluble salts) importance for taxonomical purposes. In addition, in a reprint from 1923 of his work from 1922, Prodan gave a drawing 80 of this species. This picture is original and most likely, is derived from personal observations. Perhaps is the single picture of this species made by a Romanian botanist. In this context, is strange that these strongly

408 CONCLUDING REMARKS

Following a brief analyze of this list we have recorded approximately 762 salt tolerant species related with saline environments; both salt tolerant plants, as well saline environments expressions must be regarded in the context of discussions carried out in the introductory part of this work. Of course that, at least at a first sight, this number seems very large and even unrealistic. As a matter of fact, perhaps many of species included here must be critically considered; many of them are subjected to the possibility of being reviewed or eliminated from this list. Going deeper, referring only to euhalophytes (stricto sensu), the number of species we included here would be significantly lower. The species listed in this work are included in 68 families; the distribution and number of genera and species among different families can be shown in Table 7∗. Species are just summarized as they were listed in the main part of this work.

As we emphasized in the Introduction, some of these taxa might have an uncertain “status” in their relation with salinity. This is the case of: a. species with few citations within botanical literature. This paper is strongly based on many inputs, a large part of them extracted from “classic” Romanian botanical papers. When a given species is being mentioned by few authors, we can assume that its “halophytic” character is “weakened”. Contrarily, when a species has been regularily cited by many botanists during the time, the “accidental” halophytic affinity decreases. In few situations, some taxa have been found only in one single paper, and the fact that further botanists do not included them in their works is also challenging. b. species mentioned from habitats whose relation with salinity is obscure. In this situation, the lack of data related to these habitats is very important, since a degree of arbitrariness certainly arises. c. several species mentioned from halophytic associations, as “accompanying” species, next to some well recognized halophytes. In this case, it is almost impossible to exactly delineate the precise relation of these species with salinity factor. Therefore, we can discuss about a “constant and repetitive” strong criteria when discussing and including species in this list. This is explained by the fact that the same species has been regularly mentioned as salt tolerant plant by a great number of authors. Of course that further complementary study will elucidate many aspects regarding salt tolerance, classification, ecology and economic utilization species here included. Similar lists were also made by other foreign authors, mostly for restricted regions; in some cases, the faced difficulties are clearly recognized and a part of them are similar with those we had to deal. Anyway, comparisons between lists with salt tolerant plants from different countries/regions must be done with special caution. Apart from the specific of halophytic flora and saline environments of each country, is still difficult to find convergent points. In several lists we consulted, authors do not specify the chosen criteria for including species in their lists. When

411 mentioned, the same problems we discussed in Introduction could be taken into consideration. In addition, the Anglo-Saxon language related especially to saline environments is a little bit complicated, compared to the Romanian one. This is because it comprises various terms, corresponding to plenty ecosystems: saltmarshes, coastal ecosystems (subjected to periodic tides), mangroves, estuaries, and so forth; these terms are also versatile and they are not familiar to Romanian ecological language. As we already underlined, the Romanian language – yet apparently scarce - is sometimes confusing or not very explicit, since many terms such as: salines, salty soils (sometimes salinized soils), salt lakes, salt places, and salty steppes are being used. These terms are very often accompanied by many adjectives, such as: few, little, highly, moderately – salinized. Moreover, differences also occur between Anglo-Saxon and Romanian vision about saline environments and halophytes, consequently. For instances, many studies were conducted by botanists from abroad in sea coastal ecosystems (sea shores) or related environments (sea flooded areas, estuaries, mangroves). So, during the time, the term “saltmarshes” was restricted almost exclusively to these coastal ecosystems, closed to the sea salinity influence. For instance, Adam (1990) in this monograph refers to saltmarsh as a “coastal saltmarsh”, despite the fact that in his text book the throughout used term is saltmarsh. In this regard, sometimes, when we found in a foreign text the term “saltmarsh”, is not very clear if there is a coastal or inland salinized ecosystem; using the word “saltmarsh” for an inland (and sometimes dry) salty area might be ecologically incorrect. Romania had a different “tradition” in this regard: the Black Sea has no tidal activity and the study of halophytes flora was focused mainly on inland saline habitats (non-coastal). Of course that here are salty regions next to the sea shore (marine saltmarshes), but saltmarshes can also occur in the inland areas. Aronson in his data base with salt tolerant plants of the world (1987, referred version) included about 1565 species (548 genera and 120 families). Aronson himself recognized the difficulties of choosing the appropriate criteria for including species in his list. Anyway, the more “economic” motivation of choosing criteria seems to be of great interest: “I took a pragmatic approach based on current realities limiting agriculture in arid and semi-arid as well as coastal areas in temperate and especially tropical regions”. In the following paragraphs, Aronson considered two situations:

412 1. “At what level of salinity do farmers or foresters gives up growing conventional crops – even the most salt-tolerant? 2. What kinds of water are available for expanding agriculture and forestry on currently exploited land, or preferably, on land degraded by the activity of man, in the event that appropriate halophytes can be identified and developed to make use of those water sources?” (Aronson, 1987). Anyway, while the answer to the first question is – according to Aronson - “usually” (electrical conductivity of 7-8 dS/m-1, “if not considerably lower”), the answer to the second is “more complex”. However, the way in which Aronson deals with some aspects is intriguing and even confusing, since few lines below, from “more complex” (answer), “with regards seawater (electrical conductivity of 50-80 dS/m-1), our problem of definition is simple: any plant which grows naturally or which can be successfully cultivated with seawater irrigation should be recognized as a halophyte and will be included in HALOPH. However, we certainly do not limit our inclusion in HALOPH to those species amenable to seawater irrigation”. Otherwise, the relativity related to debated issue could be clearly recognized in Aronson’s database. Thus, “HALOPH is ultimately intended to provide useful information on all the known and suspected (our nuance) salt-tolerant higher plants in the world”. In other place, he says that “survival under saline conditions may be an adequate definition of halophytes, but it is not sufficient criterion for inclusion in HALOPH”. Finally, the primary criterion of inclusion is “known or presumed tolerance to electrical conductivity measuring (or estimated to be at least) 7-8 dS/m-1, during significant portions or all of the plant’s life”. Well, in order to complete this semantic analysis, we add the observation that in the subtitle of Aronson’s work, there is a substitution of the term “salt tolerant plants” with that of “halophytes” (Salt tolerant plants of the world. A computerized data base of halophytes with emphasis on economic uses past, present and future). As we anticipated in the Introduction of this book, perhaps is not so adequate to easily pass from “salt tolerant plants” to “halophytes”. For this reason, this paper aims to be a list of Romanian salt tolerant plants and not a list of Romanian halophytes. Other authors also suggest the specific problems occurring when trying to compile such lists with salt tolerant plants. For instance, Duncan (1974) in his list of vascular halophytes of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of North America North of Mexico says that he

413 “prepared a list of species known to be or suspected of being halophytic, i.e., those that can tolerate seawater, pure or diluted” (p. 24). He gives a 347 halophyte species, included in 177 genera and 75 families. Families with the largest number of representatives are: Poaceae (50 species in 28 genera), Asteraceae (43 sp. in 18 g.), Cyperaceae (36 sp. in 8 g.), Chenopodiaceae (18 sp. in 6 g.) and Polygonaceae (15 sp. in 3 g.). We have listed here only the important families quoted by Duncan. This author emphasizes also the little uniformity in the literature in the usage of terms to identify the types of halophytic environments. Kefu et al. (1995) based on preliminary field investigation and a survey of literature propose for approximately 500 species of halophytes angiosperms, representing 226 genera and 58 families. Authors have followed the halophytes ecological definition of Jennings (1976), who stated that halophytes are the native flora of saline soils. This definition was adapted by Greenway and Munns (1980), who assumed that soils in this case contain solution with at least 0.33 MPa, being equivalent to 70 mM monovalent salts. The well represented families are: Chenopodiaceae (107 species in 26 genera), Asteraceae (69 sp. in 28 g.), Poaceae (49 sp., in 32 g), Fabaceae (28 sp. in 19 g.). Öztürk et al. (1995) recorded for Van Lake Basin-Turkey (East Anatolian part of Turkey) a number of approximately 186 halophyte species, distributed in: Poaceae (25 species), Asteraceae (15 species), Chenopodiaceae (13 species), Cyperaceae (11), Fabaceae (11), Brassicaceae (7). The authors have compared their list with those of Güvensen (1994) for coastal halophytic flora of the Aegean region in Turkey (West Anatolia), recording a number of 180 species and with those of Akhani and Horbanli (for ), who listed 345 halophyte species. Of course that our intention is not to numerically compare these data with Romanian ones. Perhaps the only reliable correspondence we can find and discuss is related to the distribution of salt tolerant plants within different botanical families. At a glance, we can notice that some families seem to display a “preference” for halophytic genera and it would be more interesting to get further insight in the future. Poaceae, Asteraceae, Fabaceae, Brassicaceae, and Cyperaceae – very rich families in salt tolerant plants – are perhaps too large and heterogeneous to find a close relationship between comprising species and salinity factor. It is really challenging to circumscribe an adaptive pattern within these families; taxa here included display diffuse anatomical adaptations, and when present, they could be discussed in relation to salinity

414 only in few situations. This is the case of salt glands, anatomical features found only in Poaceae, from the families listed above. Many salt tolerant plants belonging to these families are perennial and we think that this is a very important ecological feature that could assure the persistence of a species in a certain ecosystem, even (at least hypothetically) in the absence of producing seeds. Chenopodiaceae (sometimes included by some taxonomists in Amaranthaceae) is, no doubt, the most halophytic botanical family. Many of chenopods are strictly halophytic and they grow only in strongly salinized ecosystems; they provide the most striking example of adaptation in high salinity conditions. Their features are in relation to environmental factors: succulence, salt hairs, apparently leafless habit (the case of articulated succulent chenopods), C4 photosynthesis. Perhaps this is an example of ecological co-evolution, but further research will contribute to a better delineation of a possible “halophytic” pattern within Chenopodiaceae. Several families are also especially halophytic, as is the case of Plumbaginaceae, with many Limonium species – especially recognized due to the presence of salt glands; Primulaceae and Tamaricaceae comprise few halophytic genera and species, but they are strongly “certified” as halophytes grace to the typical salt glands. Our vision about halophytes is to discuss them taking into consideration their ecology and this suggests, of course, the involvment of environmental factors in plants life. For this reason, in this work, we tried to focus mainly on the ecology of several species, when data were available from different authors or from our personal observations. This is in the direction of the old Romanian “tradition” in approaching halophytes, a research direction that must be rediscovered and promoted to the foreign scientific media. We are also aware that the scarcity of data related to other aspects from halophytes biology imposes some limitations to this work; experimental approaches, especially referring on salinity threshold, as well as the potential economic uses of several species are major points to be reached in the future. Apart from few species, mentioned on saline habitats that might have medicinal value (Matricaria, Inula, Lepidium, Artemisia species) others have a presumed medicinal potential. When some of these species are discussed elsewhere as medicinal herbs, they are not correlated with saline habitats. In this context, the pharmacological action of the same species growing on salty areas must be carefully checked in the future. There are also several data regarding the potential use of some salt tolerant species for restoring salt-affected areas; these are addressing to

415 some ornamental trees and especially to herbaceous species that could be introduced in the agriculture for grazing. Unfortunately, the hiatus occurring after 1990 until today in the field of studies testing the behavior of such species in extended natural salinized conditions negatively affected the results that might have been obtained. Perhaps this is an additional reason explaining the lack of data for the issue we are discussing. And why it is so important to know which plants are salt tolerant? As we extended in the introductory part, before 1990, it was important, because the agriculture represented a major economic strategy of our country. Knowing which plants would have been cultivated on salinized areas, an optimal use of all degraded lands would have been done. Anyway, the situation in Romanian agriculture dramatically changed in the last two decades. Now is important to know on which salt tolerant species we can rely, if the global scenario will worsen and if one day these species need to be considered for farming. Of course that in Romania salinization is not as severe as is the case of countries from arid and semi-arid areas. But salinization and aridization remain for many countries a very serious challenge. Our opinion is that, to a considerable extent, salinization is an irreversible phenomenon and the only solution is to use salt-tolerant plants in agriculture and perhaps brackish water for irrigation. And in this situation, perhaps the key will be found in the species neither halophytes, nor glycophytes, but rather in those intermediary species with some economic value and with a certain degree of salt resistance. In this context, we think that such a list with salt tolerant plants would represent a starting point for opening new perspectives, even for times we can not exactly predict at this moment.
