摘要： As one of the most abundant ions in cells, sufficient amount of potassium (K+) is closely related to plant growth and development and contributes to plant tolerance to various abiotic stresses. However, molecular mechanisms involved in K+ uptake and transport are unclear in tropical fruit trees. In this study, 18 KT/HAK/KUP family genes (MiHAKs) were isolated from mango and characterized in mango. Results showed that MiHAKs were variable across the tissues examined and responded differentially to K+ depletion, PEG, and NaCl stresses in roots. In this tissue, K+ depletion and exogenous PEG significantly enhanced, while NaCl treatment reduced expression of responsive MiHAK genes. In particular, MiHAK14 was the most abundant KT/HAK/KUP gene in mango, especially in roots. Functional complementation in the TK2420 mutant revealed that MiHAK14 could take up exogenous K+. Moreover, overexpression of MiHAK14 in Arabidopsis enhanced plant tolerance to K+ depletion and NaCl stress with strengthened K+ nutritional status and ROS scavenging ability. This study provides molecular basis for further functional studies of KT/HAK/KUP transporters in tropical fruit trees, and favorably demonstrates the essentiality of K+ homeostasis in plant tolerance to abiotic stress, including K+ deficiency and NaCl stress.
