Abstract Soil salinization, a prevalent form of environmental stress, leads to significant soil desertification and impacts agricultural productivity by altering the internal soil environment, slowing cellular metabolism, and modifying cellular architecture. This results in a marked reduction in both the yield and diversity of crops. Maize, which is particularly susceptible to salt stress, serves as a critical model for studying these effects, making the elucidation of its molecular responses essential for crop improvement strategies. This study focuses on the phytochrome-interacting factor 3 (PIF3), previously known for its role in freezing tolerance, to assess its function in salt stress tolerance. Utilizing two transcript variants of maize ZmPIF3 (ZmPIF3.1 and ZmPIF3.2), we engineered Arabidopsis transgenic lines to overexpress these variants and analyzed their phenotypic, physiological, biochemical, and transcriptomic responses to salt stress. Our findings reveal that these transgenic lines displayed not only enhanced salt tolerance but also improved peroxide decomposition and reduced cellular membrane damage. Transcriptome analysis indicated significant roles of hormonal and Ca2+ signaling pathways, along with key transcription factors, in mediating the enhanced salt stress response. This research underscores a novel role for ZmPIF3 in plant salt stress tolerance, offering potential avenues for breeding salt-resistant crop varieties. |
