resistance. How to make full use of our understanding to improve the output of crops is a
huge challenge for us, yet the application of the genetic engineering makes this possible.
In this review, we will discuss the influence of salt stress and the response of the plants in
detail, expecting to provide a particular account for the plant resistance in molecular,
physiological and transgenic fields.
