Osmoadaptation in rhizobia: ectoine-induced salt tolerance.
After having shown that ectoine (a tetrahydropyrimidine) displays osmoprotective properties towards Escherichia coli (M. Jebbar, R. Talibart, K. Gloux, T. Bernard, and Blanco, J. Bacteriol. 174:5027-5035, 1992), we have investigated the involvement of this molecule in the osmotic adaptation of Rhizobium meliloti. Ectoine appeared almost as effective as glycine betaine in improving the growth of...
متن کاملRole of ectoine in Vibrio cholerae osmoadaptation.
Vibrio cholerae is both an intestinal pathogen and a microbe in the estuarine community. To persist in the estuarine environment, V. cholerae must adjust to changes in ionic composition and osmolarity. These changes in the aquatic environment have been correlated with cholera epidemics. In this work, we study the response of V. cholerae to increases in environmental osmolarity. Optimal growth o...
متن کاملHigh Salt Tolerance of a Bradyrhizobium Strain and Its Promotion of the Growth of Stylosanthes guianensis
Salinity is a serious limiting factor for the growth of rhizobia. Some rhizobia are tolerant to salt stress and promote plant growth, but the mechanisms underlying these effects are poorly characterized. The growth responses and osmoprotectants in four Bradyrhizobium strains were examined under salt stress in this study. Two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and mass spectrometry were conducte...
متن کاملSalt tolerance in Salicornia
Salinization of agricultural land is an increasing problem. Because of their high tolerance to salinity, Salicornia spp. could become model species to study salt tolerance. Moreover, they also represent promising saline crops. The salinity-growth response curve for Salicornia dolichostachya Moss was evaluated at 10 different salt concentrations in a hydroponic study in a greenhouse and at 5 dif...
متن کاملSalt tolerance.
Studying salt stress is an important means to the understanding of plant ion homeostasis and osmo-balance. Salt stress research also benefits agriculture because soil salinity significantly limits plant productivity on agricultural lands. Decades of physiological and molecular studies have generated a large body of literature regarding potential salt tolerance determinants. Recent advances in a...
