Root transcriptome comparison of salt-tolerant cultivar QH34 and salt-sensitive cultivar DN50

Soil salinity is one of the primary causes hampering the productivity of soybean. Breeding soybean for high tolerance to high slat conditions is important for increasing its production. To compensate for the lack of information about the molecular mechanism involved in soybean response to salt stress, comparative analysis of time-series root transcriptomic data between two soybean cultivars with distinct salt sensitivity were performed.
