Application of salt tolerance genes in wheat salt tolerance genetic engineering
Wheat(Triticum aestivum L.)is an important food crop.Salt damage seriously affects the growth and de-velopment of wheat,and reduces the grain yield and quality.It is an effective measure to improve the salt tolerance of wheat by genetic engineering.Salt-tolerant genes mainly include regulatory genes(transcription factor genes,pro-tein kinase genes,etc.)and functional genes.The application of transcription factor genes,protein kinase genes and functional genes in wheat salt tolerance genetic engineering was reviewed,and the future development direction was also prospected.
