Improved salinity tolerance of rice through cell type-specific expression of AtHKT1;1.

Improved salinity tolerance of rice through cell type-specific expression of AtHKT1;1.

Previously, cell type-specific expression of AtHKT1;1, a sodium transporter, improved sodium (Na(+)) exclusion and salinity tolerance in Arabidopsis. In the current work, AtHKT1;1, was expressed specifically in the root cortical and epidermal cells of an Arabidopsis GAL4-GFP enhancer trap line. Thes...
