Abstract
Summary: Four early salt-stress responding genes (WESR 1-4) in common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were analyzed for their temporal accumulation of mRNA during salt stress, osmotic stress and abscisic acid (ABA) treatment. All genes showed transient stimulation by 0.15 M NaCl treatment. WESR1 and WESR2 were induced by both osmotic stress and exogenous ABA treatment. WESR3 responded to exogenous ABA, but not to osmotic stress. WESR4 did not show significant response to either osmotic stress or exogenous ABA treatment. These results suggest that wheat has at least two salt stress signal transduction pathways, an ABA-dependent and ABA-independent pathway
