Plant vacuolar Na(+)/H(+) antiporter genes play significant roles in salt tolerance. However, the roles of the chrysanthemum vacuolar Na(+)/H(+) antiporter genes in salt stress response remain obscure. In this study, we isolated and characterized a novel vacuolar Na(+)/H(+) antiporter gene DgNHX1 from chrysanthemum. The DgNHX1 sequence contained 1920 bp with a complete open reading frame of 1533 bp encoding a putative protein of 510 amino acids with a predicted protein molecular weight of 56.3 k ...[more]
