Mechanisms of salinity tolerance. (2008, background): “Increased salinity tolerance of a range of plant species overexpressing NHX genes (5, 11, 15, 59, 138, 143, 144) or AtAVP1 (45) indicates the feasibility of such a mechanism and suggests that this process is important for Na+ tolerance not only in Arabidopsis but also across plant species.”
Sodium as nutrient and toxicant (2013, background): “Similarly, overexpression of OsNHX1 in upland rice resulted in growth significantly higher than that of wild type, while at the same time displaying both increases in shoot Na+ and decreases in root and shoot K+ (Chen et al. 2007).”
