👉 Halophytic plants are those that thrive in environments with high levels of salinity. These plants have a unique ability to absorb and store water, which is crucial for their survival in these harsh conditions. They are often found in arid or desiccated areas where precipitation is scarce. Halophytes can be classified into four main groups based on the type of salt they prefer: halophilic, alkalophilic, halophytic, and alkaline halophilic (ALKH).
