Identification and functional characterization of the chloride channel gene, GsCLC-c2 from wild soybean

Abstract Background The anionic toxicity of plants under salt stress is mainly caused by chloride (Cl−). Thus Cl− influx, transport and their regulatory mechanisms should be one of the most important aspects of plant salt tolerance studies, but are often sidelined by the focus on sodium (Na+) toxici...
