A brassinosteroid signaling protein acts as an integrative regulator of K+ and Na+ transport in rice response to salt stress.

Maintaining the cytosolic K+/Na+ homeostasis is crucial for plants' salt tolerance. Therefore, elucidating the regulatory mechanism governing K+/Na+ transport is pivotal to engineering salt-tolerant crops. Although many regulators have been shown specifically to modulate either Na+ or K+ transporters, little is known a...
