Ion Homeostasis and Metabolome Analysis of 14-3-3 Quadruple Mutants to Salt Stress.

Salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses that limits agricultural productivity worldwide. Many proteins with defined functions in salt stress adaptation are controlled through interactions with members of the 14-3-3 family. In the present study, we generated three 14-3-3 quadruple knockout mutants (qKOs: , and ) to study the role of six non-epsilon group 14-3-3 proteins for salt stress adaptation.
