Salt-acclimated plants which had previously acclimated to salt-stress condition accumulated higher concentration of Na+ in root cells than that of the control and non-acclimated plants. The level of Na+ accumulation in root cells correlated with the inside-acid proton gradient (ΔpH) across the plasma membrane vesicles. The salt-acclimated plants had higher antiport activity of Na+ influx /H+ efflux and H+-pumping ATPase activity than that of control and non-acclimated plants. It may be concluded that higher H+-ATPase activity favored salt-acclimated plants growing under the salt-stress environment.}, DOI = {10.6165/tai.1998.43(3).225} }
