LITERATURE
malfunction
compared with the wild type plants, the fad6 mutant shows reduced tolerance to salt stress, and accumulates more Na+ and less K+ under high NaCl stress condition. Furthermore, cellular oxidative damage is more severe in the fad6 mutant when treated with high concentrations of NaCl
physiological function
fatty acid desaturase-6 is required for salt tolerance during the early seedling development of Arabidopsis thaliana
