Bupleurum tenuissimum is a rare species in Spain, which became extinct recent decades many localities, including protected areas. In the study area, 'Albufera' Natural Park (SE Spain), was present Limonietalia grasslands, priority and endangered habitat, but has not been observed last 40 years. At present, it included conservation programmes aimed at its reintroduction this territory. This stud...

dna methylation as epigenetic mark plays a key role in normal differential and developmental processes as well as in dynamic gene regulation at the genomic level. to assess dna methylation pattern in different developmental stages of aeluropus littoralis, methylation sensitive amplified polymorphism (msap) was used. methylation and demethylation status at the ccgg recognition site were tracked ...

The implication of organic acids in Cd and Ni translocation was studied in the halophyte species Sesuvium portulacastrum. Citric, fumaric, malic, and ascorbic acids were separated and quantified by HPLC technique in shoots, roots and xylem saps of plants grown on nutrient solutions added with 50 μM Cd, 100 μM Ni and the combination of 50 μM Cd + 100 μM Ni. Results showed that Cd had no signific...

Among potential climate change-adapted crops for future agriculture, quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa), a facultative halophyte plant with exceptional nutritional properties, stands out as a prime candidate. This work examined how quinoa deals with extreme situations during seed rehydration. Quinoa distinguishes itself from other plants in multiple ways. It germinates within minutes, even under extre...

abstract nowadays, environmental pollution by heavy metals is one of the most serious threats of the world which needs effective remediation actions. the aim of this study was to investigate the potential use of atriplex [atriplex verucifera], salicornia [salicornia europaea] and chenopodium album in simultaneous uptake and accumulation of na and cd or pb in two calcareous soils with different ...

Salicornia species are halophyte plants that an important source for food, pharmacy, and bioenergy. They can be consumed as a leafy vegetable, but they accumulate heavy metals carry health risk when knowledge of how each behaves in different types soil is lacking. This present work aimed to determine what extent S. ramosissima cultivated food estuaries contaminated by it used phytoremediation w...

This study aimed to obtain information on the diversity and distribution of endophytic fungi in Ramsar wetlands. Vast salt marshes Suncheon Bay, Korea, are formed by two types ecotones (tidal flats deltas) that supported emersed halophytes Phragmites australis Suaeda japonica. Overall, 324 endophytes were isolated from P. (six sampling points delta five tidal flats) S. japonica flats). Margalef...

Soil microorganisms play the important role in driving biogeochemical cycles. However, it is still unclear on soil microbial community characteristics and mechanism rhizosphere bulk soils of different halophyte species. In this study, we analyzed bacterial communities three typical halophytes Yellow River Delta, i.e., Phragmites communis , Suaeda salsa Aeluropus sinensis by high-throughput sequ...
