A root's ability to retain K+ correlates with salt tolerance in wheat.

Journal of experimental botany - 1 Jan 2008

Cuin Tracey Ann, Betts Stewart A, Chalmandrier Rémi, Shabala Sergey

Abstract excerpt

Most work on wheat breeding for salt tolerance has focused mainly on excluding Na(+) from uptake and transport to the shoot. However, some recent findings have reported no apparent correlation between leaf Na(+) content and wheat salt tolerance. Thus, it appears that excluding Na(+) by itself is not always sufficient to increase plant salt tolerance and other physiological traits should also be considered. In...
