Exact excerpt
Together, the team sequenced the complete genetic blueprints of six Salicornia species and analyzed DNA from 318 plants collected around the world. The study identified genes linked to salt tolerance, clarified how different species evolved and are related, and created breeding-ready seed collections to support future crop development. Among the discoveries were genes involved in stress metabolism and a promising candidate linked to sensing salt stress, providing new targets for future breeding programs.
