摘　　要：Brassinosteroids(BRs)are vital plant steroid hormones involved in numerous aspects of plant life including growth,development,and responses to various stresses.However,the underlying mechanisms of how BR regulates abiotic stress responses in wheat(Triticum aestivum L.)remain to be elucidated.Here,we find that BR signal core transcription factor BRASSINAZOLE-RESISTANT1(TaBZR1)is significantly up-regulated by salt treatment.Overexpression of Tabzr1-1D(a gain-of-function TaBZR1 mutant protein)improves wheat salt tolerance.Furthermore,we show that TaBZR1 binds directly to the G-box motif in the promoter of ABA biosynthesis gene TaNCED3 to activate its expression and promotes ABA accumulation.Moreover,TaBZR1 associates with the promoters of ROS-scavenging genes TaGPX2 and TaGPX3 to activate their expression.Taken together,our results elucidate that TaBZR1 improves salt-stress tolerance by activating some genes involved in the biosynthesis of ABA and ROS scavenging in wheat,which gives us a new strategy to improve the salt tolerance of wheat.
