Schematic representation of the positive role of DCPTA on the salinity tolerance of maize. A model was developed to show that the photosynthetic capacity, water status, accumulation of Na+and K+and the Na+/K+ratio were regulated by DCPTA in maize under salinity stress. The blue arrows (↑) and the red arrows (↓) represent the positive and passive roles of DCPTA, respectively
