Xero-halophytes are the salt-tolerant plants of dry habitats that adapt efficient strategies to endure extreme salt and water fluctuations. This study elucidated the adaptations related to PSII photochemistry, photoprotection, and photoinhibition in six C4 xero-halophytes (Atriplex stocksii , Haloxy...
