Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Salinity decreased mesophyll viability by approximately 80% in cultivated rice.
- Intervention effect Salinity reduced mesophyll viability by 15% in wild rice.
- Intervention effect Under NaCl, wild rice mesophyll took up less sodium than cultivated rice.
- Intervention effect Under NaCl, wild rice mesophyll retained potassium better than cultivated rice.
- Mechanism Pharmacology implicated non-selective cation channels in wild-rice sodium uptake and potassium loss.
- Mechanism GORK channels predominantly mediated potassium loss in cultivated rice.
- Intervention effect NaCl caused dose-dependent mesophyll membrane hyperpolarization in wild rice.
- Mechanism Wild rice hyperpolarization was attributed to greater chloride uptake preference.
- Mechanism Differences in rice ionic relations were partly attributed to expression differences in four transporter genes.
- Mechanism The authors conclude wild rice discriminates chloride from sodium uptake to maintain negative membrane potential and retain potassium efficiently.
- Recommendation The authors recommend considering these traits as rice breeding targets for salt tolerance.
