QTL mapping in an interspecific sorghum population uncovers candidate regulators of salinity tolerance

Salt stress impedes plant growth and disrupts normal metabolic processes, resulting in decreased biomass and increased leaf senescence. Therefore, the ability of a plant to maintain biomass when exposed to salinity stress is critical for the production of salt tolerant crops. To identify the genetic...
