Transcriptome and physiology of salt tolerance in barley. Hordeum vulgare

Barley is used as a model cereal to decipher salt tolerance mechanisms, due to its simpler genome than wheat and better salt tolerance compared to rice and wheat. An enhanced understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying salt tolerance is essential for the genetic improvement of crops. The keen comparative RNA-Seq study to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the adaptive strategies used by wild barley genotype to combat salt stress when compared with the salt-sensitive barley cultivar in this article will have something to offer a wide range of readers interested in. Physiological and functional outcomes were assessed as a function of salt stress and several mechanisms were advanced to explain the observed effects in contrasting barley genotypes

大麦作为模式谷类作物被用于解析耐盐机制，这是因为其基因组相较于小麦更为精简，且耐盐性优于水稻与小麦。深入解析耐盐相关分子机制，对作物遗传改良至关重要。本文开展了一项精细的比较转录组测序（RNA-Seq）研究，旨在解析野生大麦基因型应对盐胁迫的适应性策略分子机制，并与盐敏感大麦栽培品种进行对比，该研究可为广大相关领域读者提供有价值的参考。本研究以盐胁迫为变量，评估了相关生理与功能指标，并提出了多种机制用以解释不同基因型大麦中观测到的差异效应。
