摘要
Chloride (CL-) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth, but can be toxic at high concentrations resulting in reduced growth and yield. Although saline soils are generally dominated by both sodium (Na+ and Cl- ions, compared to Na+ toxicity very little is known about physiological and genetic control mechanisms of tolerance to Cl- toxicity. In hydroponics and field studies, a bread wheat mapping population was tested to examine the relationships between physiological traits [Na+, potassium (K+) and Cl- ucidate the genetic control mechanism of plantconcentration] involved in salinity tolerance (ST) and seedling growth or grain yield, and to Cl- accumulation differed entirely between hydroponics and field locations and few were detected in two or more environments, demonstrating substantial QTL-by-environment interactions. The presence of several QTL for Cl- concentration indicated that uptake and accumulation was a polygenic trait. A major Cl- concentration QTL (5A; barc56/gwm 7 86) was identified in three field environments, and accounted for 27-32% he total genetic variance. Alignment between the 5A QTL interval and its corresponding physical genome regions in wheat heat and other grasses has enabled the search for candidate genes involved in Cl- transport, which is discussed.
