Maize leaves salt-responsive genes revealed by comparative transcriptome of salt-tolerant and salt-sensitive cultivars during the seedling stage

Maize (Zea mays) is a crop of significant global importance, yet its productivity is considerably hindered by salt stress. In this study, we investigated two maize cultivars, one exhibiting high salt tolerance (ST) and the other showing salt sensitivity (SS) at the seedling stage. The ST cultivar de...
