Changing gears in salt stress tolerance: AtCAMTA6’s role in transcriptional regulation of ion transport
Plant Physiology, Plant Physiology: News and Views, ResearchSalt stress affects plant growth and development at all stages, reducing germination, and compromising seedling establishment, transpiration, and root growth (Munns and Tester, 2008). At later developmental stages, the overaccumulation of salt ions in the shoot disrupts photosynthesis and other vital…
