GABA (γ‐aminobutyric acid) is a ubiquitous non‐protein amino acid that commonly accumulates in plants in response to stressful conditions. However, functions of GABA in plants remain still unclear. In this study, we provide metabolic and transcriptional evidences that GABA metabolism is involved in central carbon metabolism regulation upon salt stress in roots. Furthermore, we show that GABA transaminase deficiency results in deleterious consequences for root development and cell wall elaboration during salt stress. Our work thus highlights the critical function of GABA metabolism in root metabolic acclimation to saline conditions.
