It is demonstrated that salt stress markedly inhibits root growth in tobacco, while exogenous auxin application effectively alleviated this inhibitory effect, thus offering a promising genetic target for engineering salt-tolerant crops.
Low nitrogen (LN) and high salt stress are major constraints for plant growth and development. Under LN stress, plants typically show root elongation to increase nitrogen foraging from the rhizosphere, whereas high salt levels cause inhibition of root growth to avoid salinity stress-induced toxicity. To date, mechanism...
Salt stress severely limits crop productivity by affecting plant growth and development. Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) shows considerable adaptability to saline environments; however, the molecular basis of root responses to salt stress remains largely unclear. In this study, we investigated the physiological, hormonal,...

Salt stress severely restricts wheat growth and productivity, yet the regulatory mechanisms governing the abundance and activity of stress-responsive transcription factors remain incompletely understood. In this study, we characterized the wheat MYB transcription factor TaMYB39 and investigated its role in salt toleran...
The developmental plasticity of lateral roots (LRs) is an essential adaptive strategy for optimizing root system architecture under salt stress. However, the molecular mechanisms by which salt stress modulates LR plasticity through cell wall remodeling remain largely elusive, particularly in woody species. This study i...

It is found that MsGLK1 responds to alkali and salt–alkali mixed stresses in alfalfa and detailed functional analysis of GLK1 in the model plants Arabidopsis and Medicago truncatula showed that GLK1 plays an important role in regulating tolerance to alkali and salt–alkali mixed stress.

Nitrogen availability and salinity are two major environmental factors affecting plant growth and development. Nitrate uptake is strictly regulated through transcriptional networks that balance nutrient assimilation and stress responses. The role of BTB-ZF transcription factors, which have been implicated in various ab...
