Research Interests

Professor Salt’s long term research interest is to understand the function of the genes and gene networks that regulate the plant ionome [defined as the elemental composition of an organism, tissue or cell], along with the evolutionary forces that shape this regulation. It was Professor Salt’s pioneering work (Lahner et al., 2003), along with his collaborators, that led to the new research paradigm of ionomics (reviewed in Salt et al., 2008). This ionomics approach was featured on the cover of Nature Biotechnology, was the subject of a “News and Views” in Nature Biotechnology (Rea, 2003), and was reviewed in Trends in Biotechnology, where the approach was described as “an impressive incorporation of plant genetics, analytical chemistry and statistical analysis.”

To encourage a diverse group of researchers to participate in ionomics, Professor Salt has developed a unique online web-based community portal called the ionomicsHUB (www.ionomicshub.org). The ionomicsHUB focuses on both workflow control for high-throughput data collection (Baxter et al., 2007), and delivery of ionomic data to the community. New funding is now allowing additional new tools and resources to be added to the iHUB, as well as supporting community meetings and workshops to further develop the community and refine the iHUB.

Professor Salt is committed to engagement with the public through informal science education. He has developed a 2,000 sq ft informal science exhibit on genomics called Genomics Explorer (http://www.genomicsexplorer.com/) which has been displayed at the Indiana State Fair, Owensboro Museum of Science and History, and the Danville Science Center.  This exhibit won Gold at the Critiques and Awards Program, Association for Communication Excellence, 2010. Professor Salt has also developed the award winning science-based interactive game the Genomics Digital Lab (http://www.aspb.org/education/GDLProject.CFM). This game has won first prize in 2008 in the Interactive Media Award, Science and Engineering Visualization Challenge, and at the World Summit Awards e-Science & Technology, 2009.

Professor Salt has developed a novel functional genomics approach to study the ionome, combining high-throughput elemental analysis with bioinformatics, genetics and genomics. Using this approach he has published a series of high impact papers (Rus et al. 2006, Baxter et al., 2008ab, Baxter et al., 2009, Morrissey et al., 2009, Atwell et al., 2010; Baxter et al., 2010) that not only provide new biological insight into the mechanisms regulating the plant ionome, but also validate this type of approach. Professor Salt’s research using this approach has also started to reveal the molecular basis of plant adaptation to the environment. For example, a recent publication by Professor Salt (Baxter et al., 2010) provides strong evidence that selection is acting on the Na-transporter HKT1 to adapt local populations of A. thaliana in Europe to saline environments, and this paper was described by one reviewer as “This paper should stand as an example to other researchers hoping to thoroughly describe mechanisms of adaptation.

Professor Salt has been a pioneer in using DNA microarrays to map the physical location of mutations. Two of Professor Salt’s papers were recently profiled in a review on root genomics by Benfey et al., (2010), highlighting the success of this approach. Professor Salt has also been an early pioneer in successfully applying genome-wide association analysis (GWA) to identify loci involved in regulating the ionome (Atwell et al., 2010; Baxter et al., 2010). Continuing to adopt new technologies to enhance his research approach, Professor Salt is currently applying short read resequencing technologies for the identification of causal DNA polymorphisms in A. thaliana ionomic mutants.

Professor Salt has also gone on to extend ionomics into yeast, completing a screen of all 12,000 strains in the full-genome knockout and overexpression collections. This unique data set is now being leveraged to better understand the regulation of the ionome in other species including A. thaliana and rice. Through collaborations Professor Salt is also extending the ionomics concept into C. elegans and mouse.

To encourage a diverse group of researchers to participate in ionomics, Professor Salt has developed a unique online web-based community portal called the ionomicsHUB (www.ionomicshub.org). The ionomicsHUB focuses on both workflow control for high-throughput data collection (Baxter et al., 2007), and delivery of ionomic data to the community. New funding is now allowing additional new tools and resources to be added to the iHUB (Fig 3), as well as supporting community meetings and workshops to further develop the community and refine the iHUB.

Continuing to adopt new technologies to enhance his research approach, Professor Salt is currently applying short read next generation resequencing technologies for the identification of causal DNA polymorphisms in A. thaliana ionomic mutants, and natural accessions of A. thaliana and rice.

Professor Salt has also been applying these ionomic techniques for the identification of genes that control the mineral nutrient and trace element content of rice grain. This approach entails measuring the rice grain ionome in over 1,700 natural accessions of rice grown in the field. From this information accessions have been selected to develop over 25 mapping populations which Professor Salt is now using to identify the genes that control the rice grain ionome.
