🔬 Despite these adaptations, there are still challenges. Research into alfalfa’s salt tolerance mechanisms is limited by its complex genetics. However, biotechnology offers potential improvements for future salt-tolerant varieties. (6/7)

Figure swhoing up- and down-regulation of alfalfa flavonoid biosynthetic pathways under salt stress.
Green: up-regulated; red: down-regulated; the expression of the other genes is not significantly altered by salt stress; gray-dotted line: pathway is still unclear (Xiong et al. 2017; Liu et al. 2021).
