Özet
Since many agricultural crops have a low tolerance to salt, they have the potential to become unnecessary in the future with increased soil salinity. Halophytes known as nontraditional products, although not easily available on our dining table due to our established food preferences, they are salt tolerant plants that have the potential to be used as human food in the future. One of these plants that can grow on saline habitats as well as under extreme climatic conditions is Portulaca oleracea, a promising food source for human beings. This chapter highlights the latest information about the Poleracea with an emphasis on its morphological features, taxonomic status, some ecological and ecophysiological characteristics, effect of salinity on the plant, cultivation, and nutritional features. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021.
