Salt-Induced Expression of the Vacuolar H+-ATPase in the Common Ice Plant Is Developmentally Controlled and Tissue Specific [PDF]
Abstract For salinity stress tolerance in plants, the vacuolar type H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) is of prime importance in energizing sodium sequestration into the central vacuole and it is known to respond to salt stress with increased expression and enzyme activity. In this work we provide information that the expressional response to salinity

Ice plant (Mesembryanthemum crystallinum) is a facultative halophyte that responds to water stress in the form of drought or high salinity by switching from C(3) photosynthesis to Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM), a physiological adaptation that increases water conservation.

The Kandelia obovata transcription factor KoWRKY40 enhances cold tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis
Background WRKY transcription factors play key roles in plant development processes and stress response. Kandelia obovata is the most cold-resistant species of mangrove plants, which are the important contributors to coastal marine environment.

Participation of citric acid and isocitric acid in the diurnal cycle of carboxylation and decarboxylation in the common ice plant [PDF]
In this paper we analyzed changes in the concentration of the three carboxylic acids (malic acid, citric acid and isocitric acid) during the salinity-induced C3–CAM shift in Mesembryanthemum crystallinum. We documented that a nocturnal accumulation of citrate preceded that of malate, and that the CAM-dependent increase in citric acid was about 100 ...
