Abstract

Climate change-induced abiotic stresses are major limitations to crop growth and development. Among the various stresses, soil salinity is a major concern, as percentage of soil salinization has increased due to the increase in the level of ocean water and increase in irrigated area. Biotechnology and precision breeding techniques can be efficiently utilized to cope up with this abiotic stress. However, the prerequisite of the utilization of such technique requires suitable genetic resources consisting salt stress responsive genes can be deployed against this stress. Wild relatives are known to be the excellent source of such favorable alleles. Oryza coarctata is the only wild halophyte in the genus Oryza, which can withstand salinity up to 40 ds/m due to presence of distinct anatomical, morphological and physiological characteristics. Several metabolites and their genes had been elucidated in this plant for their role in imparting salt tolerance. In this chapter, we have compiled all the relevant information to understand the mechanism for salinity and waterlogging tolerance of this species. Additionally, we also identified the research gaps that need to be addressed to harness the beneficial genes/QTLs from this important halophyte.
