Abstract:

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is an important food crop. Salt damage seriously affects the growth and development of wheat, and reduces the grain yield and quality. It is an effective measure to improve the salt tolerance of wheat by genetic engineering. Salt-tolerant genes mainly include regulatory genes (transcription factor genes, protein kinase genes, etc.) and functional genes. The application of transcription factor genes, protein kinase genes and functional genes in wheat salt tolerance genetic engineering was reviewed, and the future development direction was also prospected.

Key words: wheat, salt tolerance, genetic engineering, kinase, transcription factor, functional protein
