Research progress on Na~+/H~+ antiporter of plant

Huisen Zhu

Abstract

Excessive Na+ accumulaeted in soil is one of major factors inhibiting plant growth and resulting in salinization of soil.Na+/H+ antiporter plays an important role in plant salt tolerance by keeping Na+ homeostasis.The recent research progress on classification,structure and function of the Na+/H+ antiporter,including its relation to plant salt tolerance were reviewed in order to reveal the salt tolerance mechanism and empoldering in future.
