| الوصف: | Key words: ABA, salt stress, transgenic plants Soil salinity is a major abiotic stress in plant agriculture strongly, influencing plant productivity world-wide. Classical breeding for salt tolerance in crop plants has been attempted to improve field performance without success. Therefore, an alternative strategy is to generate salt tolerant plants through genetic engineering. Several species and experimental approaches have been used in order to identify those genes that are important for salt tolerance. Due to high level of salt tolerance, halophytes are good candidates to identify salt tolerance genes. However, other species such as yeast and glycophytes have also been employed. Three approaches are commonly used to identify genes important for salt tolerance. The first approach is to identify genes involved in processes known to be critical for salt tolerance (osmolyte synthesis, ion homeostasis, etc.). The second approach is to identify genes whose expression is regulated by salt stress. This is relatively simply and applicable to any plant species. Genetic amenability of some species allows the third approach, which consists in the identification of salt tolerance determinants based on functionality. At the moment, there is a large number of reports in the literature claiming that plants with increased salt tolerance have been obtained. The main problem is that different plant species, stage of development, organs, promoters and salt conditions used it is difficult to compare the degree of |
