GO term: hyperosmotic salinity response Help



Ontology: Biological Process (GO:0042538)

Definition: Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of detection of, or exposure to, an increase in the concentration of salt (particularly but not exclusively sodium and chloride ions) in the environment.

Synonyms: response to hyperosmotic salt stress; salt tolerance
