Genotype-dependent salt tolerance mechanisms in wheat-Thinopyrum introgression lines revealed by ion transporter gene expression and seedling phenotyping.

Abstract excerpt

Soil salinity significantly impairs wheat growth and yield worldwide. Wild relatives of wheat, such as Thinopyrum species, harbor valuable salt tolerance traits that can improve cultivated wheat via introgression. This study investigates the salt tolerance of three wheat-Thinopyrum introgression lines and their wheat parents during germination under salt stress (0, 100, 200 mM NaCl). Molecular cytogenetic...
