Abstract
Several researches have been evaluating the use of nitrogen fertilization as a way to attenuate the effects of salinity in different cultures. However, plant responses to nitrogen fertilization under saline stress conditions are quite complex and many divergent results are still found in the literature. In some studies, the application of nitrogen attenuates the effects of salinity only under low salinity conditions, in others no significant interaction between salinity and nitrogen is observed and in some it is possible to observe some attenuating effect of nitrogen in plants under saline stress. In this context, this review discusses the possibility of nitrogen fertilization to attenuate the effects of irrigation water salinity in maize.
