Methods of improving drought and salt resistance in a plant and genetically engineered plants with improved drought and salt resistance

The present disclosure provides methods for increasing drought resistance, salt resistance, and biomass production of a plant. The methods encompass expression of DiGeorge-Syndrome Critical Region 14 (DGCR14) gene in the plant. In comparison to a plant not manipulated in this manner, the disclosed, genetically-modified, plants display improved drought resistance and salt resistance. Also provided are plants that can be obtained by the method according to the invention, and nucleic acid vectors to be used in the described methods.

Great Salt Lake Health & Air Quality: Monitoring Lakebed Exposure and its Impact on Air Quality and Environmental Hazards in the Great Salt Lake Watershed

The Great Salt Lake (GSL) is a terminal saline lake located in northern Utah, USA. Water inflow has declined rapidly over the last forty years due to human withdrawals and climate change. Lake levels have been lowered which has exposed over 50% of the lakebed to erosion. There is a public health risk tied to the subsequent increased frequency and intensity of regional dust storms caused by airborne lakebed dust under specific meteorological conditions.
