Abstract excerpt
Chloride (Cl-) ions cause major damage to crops in saline soils. Understanding the key factors that influence Cl- uptake and translocation will aid the breeding of more salt-tolerant crops. Here, using genome-wide association study and transcriptomic analysis, we identified a NITRATE TRANSPORTER 1 (NRT1)/PEPTIDE TRANSPORTER family (NPF) protein, GmNPF7.5, as the dominant gene locus influencing Cl- homeostasis in...
