Salt stress is one of the most serious environmental factors limiting the productivity of crop plants. To understand the molecular basis for salt responses, we used mutagenesis to identify plant genes required for salt tolerance in tomato. As a result, three tomato salt-hypersensitive ( tss ) mutants were isolated. These mutants defined two loci and were caused by single recessive nuclear mutations.
