Insights into the regulation of wild soybean tolerance to salt-alkaline stress.

ABSTRACT: Soybean is an important grain and oil crop. In China, there is a great contradiction between soybean supply and demand. China has around 100 million ha of salt-alkaline soil, and at least 10 million could be potentially developed for cultivated land. Therefore, it is an effective way to improve soybean production by breeding salt-alkaline-tolerant soybean cultivars. Compared with wild soybean, cultivated soybean has lost a large number of important genes related to environmental adaptation during the long-term domestication and improvement process. Therefore, it is greatly important to identify the salt-alkaline tolerant genes in wild soybean, and investigate the molecular basis of wild soybean tolerance to salt-alkaline stress. In this review, we summarized the current research regarding
