Yeast functional screen to identify genes conferring salt stress tolerance in Salicornia europaea
Salinity is a critical environmental factor that adversely affects crop productivity. Halophytes have evolved various mechanisms to adapt to saline environments. Salicornia europaea L. is one of the most salt-tolerant plant species. It does not have special salt-secreting structures like a salt gland or salt bladder, and is therefore a good model for studying the common mechanisms underlying pl...
متن کاملYeast functional screen to identify genetic determinants capable of conferring abiotic stress tolerance in Jatropha curcas
BACKGROUND Environmentally inflicted stresses such as salinity and drought limit the plant productivity both in natural and agricultural system. Increasing emphasis has been directed to molecular breeding strategies to enhance the intrinsic ability of plant to survive stress conditions. Functional screens in microorganisms with heterologous genes are a rapid, effective and powerful tool to iden...
متن کاملMultiple compartmentalization of sodium conferred salt tolerance in Salicornia europaea.
Euhalophyte Salicornia europaea L., one of the most salt-tolerant plant species in the world, can tolerate more than 1000 mM NaCl. To study the salt tolerance mechanism of this plant, the effects of different NaCl concentrations on plant growth, as well as Na(+) accumulation and distribution at organ, tissue, and subcellular levels, were investigated. Optimal growth and an improved photosynthet...
متن کاملCandidate salt tolerance genes in Salicornia
To date, no gene expression comparisons have been conducted between highly salt tolerant halophytes and related glycophytes. Therefore, I investigated the effects of salinity on ion accumulation and expression of candidate salt tolerance genes in the highly tolerant salt accumulating halophyte Salicornia dolichostachya and the taxonomically related glycophytic Spinacia oleracea. S. dolichostach...
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...
