Constitutive Contribution by the Rice OsHKT1;4 Na+ Transporter to Xylem Sap Desalinization and Low Na+ Accumulation in Young Leaves Under Low as High External Na+ Conditions

HKT Na+ transporters correspond to major salt tolerance QTLs in different plant species and are targets of great interest for breeders. In rice, the HKT family is composed of seven or eight functional genes depending on cultivars. Three rice HKT genes, OsHKT1;1, OsHKT1;4 and OsHKT1;5, are known to c...
