Aconserved salt-stress co-expression network in japonica rice reveals partially dissociated hub gene connectivity and transcriptional induction

Soil salinity severely compromises rice ( Oryza sativa L.) growth and grain yield by disrupting ionic and osmotic homeostasis. Although transcriptome profiling has advanced understanding of salt-stress responses in rice, the conservation of co-expression networks across genetic backgrounds and the relationship...
