Timing Determines Fate: Temporal Dynamics of Jasmonate Signaling Distinguish Adaptive from Maladaptive Salt Stress Responses in Rice

Plant encounters with saline conditions trigger a phase of osmotic stress, followed by ionic stress as salt accumulates in plant tissue. Jasmonate (JA) signalling plays a vital role in both phases, but its role for adaptation depends on timing. Using wild-type rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Kitaake) and a JA-deficient allen...
