Abstract: In order to investigate the salt tolerance mechanism of the HKT protein genes in soybean,a novel soybean gene GmHKT6;2 was identified in a salt tolerant soybean cultivar. GmHKT6;2 containing an open reading frame( ORF) of 1 644 nucleotides. The ORF encoded a protein of 547 amino acids. Sequence alignment and evolutionary tree clustering analysis showed that GmHKT6;2 is a new HKT protein gene in soybean. GmHKT6;2 gene were expressed in root,stem and leaves by using Real-Time PCR analysis in soybean. GmHKT6;2 was strongly induced and highly expressed in root,stem and leaves after treatment by 150 mmol/L NaCI. Domain analysis showed that:the soybean GmHKT6;2 gene with 10 putative transmembrane domain(TMD)and cation transport protein conserved domain,suggesting that GmHKT6;2 gene may be through control canon transporter to regulate the salt tolerance in soybean.
