Mechanisms of Cl transport contributing to salt tolerance

Abstract: Mechanisms of Cl-transport in plants are poorly understood, despite the importance of minimizing Cl -toxicity for salt tolerance. This review summarizes Cl -transport processes in plants that contribute to genotypic differences in salt tolerance, identifying key traits from the cellular to whole-plant level. Key aspects of Cl -transport that contribute to salt tolerance in some species include reduced net xylem loading, intracellular compartmentation and greater efflux of Cl -from roots. We also provide an upd… Show more

“…Although higher concentrations of Cl -is toxic to plants, it is considered as an essential nutrient that regulates enzyme activities in the cytoplasm, acts as a counter anion to stabilize membrane potential, and is involved in turgor and pH regulation (Teakle and Tyerman, 2010). Therefore, the reduction in Cl -in 0 mM K, Alkalinity+0 mM K, and Alkalinity+2 mM K treatments clearly contributed an adverse effect to the natural physiological metabolism processes of Swiss chard plants in these treatments.…”

“…From a Cl -perspective, the efflux of Cl -could be balanced by the uptake of another anion. NO 3 -/Cl -interactions are analogous to K + /Na + interactions and many anion channels are more selective for NO 3 -than Cl - (Teakle and Tyerman, 2010). In Alkalinity+2 mM K and Alkalinity+0 mM K treatments, the obvious inductions of NO 3 -would likely offset the scarcity of anions caused by sharp reductions in Cl -.…”

“…The toxic effects of Na are well known and correlated with the grain yield under saline conditions [49][50][51][52][53], whereas there are few reports on toxic effects of Cl in salinity experiments [3,9,33,[54][55][56][57][58]. For further information on the roles of Na and Cl in plants under salt stress see Teakle and Tyerman [59] and Flowers et al [60]. Single or combined element ratios were scattered in the 62 rice genotypes under control and salt stress conditions within each salt category compared to the standards.…”

“…Chloride transport and exclusion from shoots is correlated with salt tolerance in many species. Crop tolerance to chloride is not nearly so well documented as crop tolerance to salinity, however, its concentration is important for salt tolerance (Tavakkoli et al 2010;Teakle and Tyerman 2010). Chlorine inputs to soils occur mainly as a result of Cl -deposition from rainwater, fertilizer applications (KCl), irrigation water, sea spray, dust and air pollution.…”
