TL;DR

This study systematically characterized the COBL gene family in the salt-resilient Glycine tabacina and identified a novel GtCOBL9 that may confers salt tolerance to cultivated soybean through cell wall modification, ionic and oxidative adjustments, however underlying molecular mechanisms require further investigations.

Identification and preliminary functional characterization of MsPAL2, a key salt-tolerance gene during seed germination in Medicago sativa

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is an important legume forage crop. Salt stress severely impairs seed germination, compromising field establishment and subsequent seedling growth. However, the key genes underlying alfalfa seed responses to salt stress during germination remain largely unidentified, hindering targeted genetic...

Study of the physiological and biochemical characteristics of Cupriavidus metallidurans YX16 and growth-promoting on maize seedlings under salt stress.

Findings indicate that Cupriavidus metallidurans YX16 is a salt-tolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR) that effectively alleviates salt-induced damage and promotes maize growth, providing a basis for the development of microbial agents for the amelioration of saline-alkali soils.
