Abstract:SUMMARYPear is a widely cultivated fruit crop, but its distribution and sustainable production are significantly limited by salt stress. This study used RNA‐Seq time‐course analysis, WGCNA, and functional enrichment analysis to uncover the molecular mechanisms underlying salt stress tolerance in Pyrus ussuriensis. We identified an ABA‐related regulatory module, PbGBF3‐PbAPL2‐PbSDH1, as crucial in this response. PbGBF3, a bZIP transcription factor, enhances salt tolerance by upregulating PbAPL2 and PbSDH1.
