OsSAP6 Positively Regulates Soda Saline-Alkaline Stress Tolerance in Rice.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Soil salinization is a worldwide environmental problem, especially in the arid and semiarid regions of northeastern China, which are heavily affected by soda saline-alkaline stress. At present, there is an urgent need to improve the soda saline-alkaline stress tolerance of rice.

Results

Stress-associated proteins are involved in regulating the abiotic stresses in plants. There are 18 members of the rice stress-associated protein (OsSAP) gene family. In this study, the expression levels of OsSAP6 in leaves and roots were upregulated with increasing NaHCO₃ stress duration. OsSAP6 was located in nucleus and cytoplasm. The bud length and total root length of OsSAP6 overexpression rice were significantly longer than those of Lj11 (Oryza sativa longjing11) du
