Salinity Tolerance in Rice

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Modern Techniques of Rice Crop Production

Abstract

Rice is the main staple food crop across the globe. Among abiotic stresses, salinity stress is increasing at an alarming rate. It inhibits rice growth and yield as rice is a sensitive crop to salinity. It influences various physiological functioning of the rice, which results in retarded growth and ultimately gives poor yield. In this chapter, we highlighted influence of physiological changes and effect on rice grain in response to salinity stress and their adaptation strategies. Moreover, currently numerous studies have explored the molecular response/changes in rice to cope with salinity stress. In this regard, we explained the abscisic acid and signaling under salinity stress along with the functions of transcription factors. Final part of this chapter covers the importance of modern breeding techniques to screen and develop salt tolerant cultivars within a short period of time as compared to conventional breeding approaches.
