Proline accumulation, ions dynamics and sodium root-shoot partition and compartmentation

Proline accumulation, ions dynamics and sodium root-shoot partition and compartmentation

Despite its economic relevance, little is known about salt tolerance mechanisms in pepper plants. To address this question, we compared differences in responses to NaCl in two Capsicum chinense varieties: Rex (tolerant) and Chichen-Itza (sensitive). Under salt stress (150 mM NaCl over 7 days) roots...
