Expression of a celery mannose 6‐phosphate reductase in Arabidopsis thaliana enhances salt tolerance and induces biosynthesis of both mannitol and a glucosyl‐mannitol dimer

ABSTRACT Mannitol, a sugar alcohol that may serve as a compatible solute to cope with salt stress, is synthesized via the action of a mannose‐6‐phosphate reductase (M6PR) in celery (Apium graveolens L). In contrast to previous approaches that have used a bacterial gene to engineer mannitol biosynthe...
