Physiology and proteome responses of two contrasting rice mutants and their wild type parent under salt stress conditions at the vegetative stage.

Abstract excerpt

Salinity is one of the major environmental limiting factors that affects growth and productivity of rice (Oryza sativa L.) worldwide. Rice is among the most sensitive crops to salinity, especially at early vegetative stages. In order to get a better understanding of molecular pathways affected in rice mutants showing contrasting responses to salinity, we exploited the power of 2-DE based proteomics to explore the...
