Association analysis was conducted in a core collection of 94 genotypes of Solanum pimpinellifolium to identify variations linked to salt tolerance traits (physiological and yield traits under salt stress) in four candidate genes viz., DREB1A, VP1.1, NHX1, and TIP. The candidate gene analysis covered a concatenated length of 4594 bp per individual and identified five SNP/Indels in DREB1A and VP...

Hydrangea macrophylla is popular for its unique physiological characteristics and changeable colors. Previous studies have shown that the pH of vacuoles sepal cells hydrangea affects color sepals. Located on vacuolar membrane, NHX1 an important H+ proton pump drives exchange metal ions. This environment by controlling accumulation in vacuole. In hydrangea, HmNHX1 gene has open reading frame 162...

Puccinellia tenuiflora is a typical salt-excluding halophytic grass with excellent salt tolerance. Plasma membrane Na+/H+ transporter SOS1, HKT-type protein and tonoplast Na+/H+ antiporter NHX1 are key Na+ transporters involved in plant salt tolerance. Based on our previous research, we had proposed a function model for these transporters in Na+ homeostasis according to the expression of PtSOS1...

Soil alkalization triggers ion toxicity and osmotic alkaline (high pH) stresses in plants, damaging their growth productivity. Therefore, we investigated whether priming with abscisic acid (ABA) increases the tolerance of alfalfa seedlings to stress, then examined underlying molecular mechanisms. Alfalfa were pretreated ABA (10 μM) for 16 h subjected stress using a 15 mM Na2CO3 solution (pH 10....
