Abstract:

Sucrose non-fermenting 1-related protein kinase 2(SnRK2) is a ubiquitous protein kinase in plants. It belongs to the Ser/Thr class of protein kinases, and can play a role in various signal transductions. In order to study the role of SnRK2 protein kinase in plant stress resistance, this study analyzed the characteristics and research process of SnRK2 gene family, summarized the functions of SnRK2 gene in regulating stomatal size of plant leaf, responding to drought stress and salt stress, and responding to seed germination and development. It was pointed out that SnRK2 gene played a role in various signal transductions, which could effectively improve plant stress resistance. It is of great significance for ABA response, plant growth and development, and it provides a reference basis for future research on the molecular mechanism of SnRK2 and plant variety cultivation.

Key words: SnRK2 gene family, sucrose non fermenting1 related protein kinase, plant stress resistance, abiotic stress, gene function
