Role of Ion Transporters in Salinity Resistance in Plants

Abstract: Salinity is one of the most severe factors that limits the yield of filed, because most of crops employed in agriculture is salt sensitive. This losses in yield is mainly due to drought and high salinity of field and this situation will be worst with global climatic changes. In particular the toxicity of Na is due to its ability to inhibit enzyme function directly by binding to inhibitory sites or indirectly by displacing K from activation sites. Plants have evolved a wide range of mechanisms to adapt and miti… Show more

“…These two transport proteins showed higher abundance in response to cold stress. They were induced in Arabidopsis thaliana and Ananas comosus (Kinoshita et al 2011;Mirvat et al 2016). As such, A. aphylla seedlings appear to adapt to the cold environments, in part, through alterations in their amino acid metabolism and membrane transport proteins.…”

“…The key to salt tolerance in plants is to successfully balance osmotic adjustment, ion requirements, the energy pool and the amount of Na + entering or effluxing from root cells in order to maintain a low Na + :K + ratio in the cytosol ( Redwan et al, 2016 ). To achieve this, many different processes need to be integrated to remove or compartmentalize excesss ions, to synthesize organic osmolytes to maintain osmotic balance, and to provide sufficient energy for plant growth and seed production.…”

“…In such greenhouses, nutrient salts gradually accumulate in the soil because of fertilizer overuse and the absence of leaching with rainfall (Shi et al, 2009). This has been shown to negatively influence crop growth through an excess of nutrients and/or an osmotic effect (Fujimaki and Kikuchi, 2010;Redwan et al, 2016). In Japan, to overcome this problem in greenhouse horticulture, the field is typically flooded during a fallow period (generally in the summer) after cultivation of commercial crops to leach the accumulated salts downwards.…”
