    • The WRKY Transcription Factor OsWRKY54 Is Involved in Salt Tolerance in Rice.
    • This study reports the need for an uncharacterized WRKY transcription factor OsWRKY54 for rice salt-tolerance
    • Salt stress resulted in a rapid induction of OsWRKY54 expression in roots
    • The loss of OsWRKY54 resulted in greater Na accumulation in shoots and enhanced sensitivity of rice plants to salt stress
    • The real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) and transcriptome analysis revealed that OsWRKY54 regulated the expression of some essential genes related to salt tolerance, such as OsNHX4 and OsHKT1;5
    • Thus, these results indicated that OsWRKY54 was a critical regulatory factor in salt tolerance in rice
