Deciphering the Sodium Sensing Mechanisms in Glycophytes and Halophytes

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 12, Page 8586-8603, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Plants, including halophytes (salt‐tolerant) and glycophytes (salt‐sensitive), have developed diverse molecular mechanisms and morphological adaptations to survive in saline environments. The cellular components and molecular processes for salinity sensing and stress tolerance have been extensively identified in glycophytes, but not so with ...

ZxNHX1 from a xerophyte outperforms AtNHX1 in sequestering Na+ into vacuoles to enhance plant stress resistance and yield

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 9, Page 3497-3509, September 2025.
Summary Uncovering the mechanisms underlying stress‐resistant traits in xerophytes thriving in harsh environments can aid the genetic improvement of crops. The xerophyte Zygophyllum xanthoxylum features high Na+ accumulation in leaves, mediated by the vacuolar antiporter ZxNHX1.
