Rhizobacteria Isolated from Saline Soil Induce Systemic Tolerance in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) against Salinity Stress

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Halo-tolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have the inherent potential to cope up with salinity. Thus, they can be used as an effective strategy in enhancing the productivity of saline agro-systems.

Regulation of compatible solute accumulation in bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 1998
In their natural habitats, microorganisms are often exposed to osmolality changes in the environment. The osmotic stress must be sensed and converted into an activity change of specific enzymes and transport proteins and/or it must trigger their synthesis such that the osmotic imbalance can be rapidly restored. On the basis of the available literature,

Stressed out: Bacterial response to high salinity using compatible solute biosynthesis and uptake systems, lessons from Vibrionaceae

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021
Bacteria have evolved mechanisms that allow them to adapt to changes in osmolarity and some species have adapted to live optimally in high salinity environments such as in the marine ecosystem.

Compatible solutes from hyperthermophiles improve the quality of DNA microarrays

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2007
Background DNA microarrays are among the most widely used technical platforms for DNA and RNA studies, and issues related to microarrays sensitivity and specificity are therefore of general importance in life sciences. Compatible solutes are derived from

Quantitative RNA-seq Analysis Unveils Osmotic and Thermal Adaptation Mechanisms Relevant for Ectoine Production in Chromohalobacter salexigens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Quantitative RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and the complementary phenotypic assays were implemented to investigate the transcriptional responses of Chromohalobacter salexigens to osmotic and heat stress.

To be or not to be a compatible solute: Bioversatility of mannosylglycerate and glucosylglycerate [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic and Applied Microbiology, 2008
Mannosylglycerate (MG) is an intracellular organic solute found in some red algae, and several thermophilic bacteria and hyperthermophilic archaea. Glucosylglycerate (GG) was identified at the reducing end of a polysaccharide from mycobacteria and in a free form in a very few mesophilic bacteria and halophilic archaea.

Regulation of osmoadaptation in the moderate halophile Halobacillus halophilus : chloride, glutamate and switching osmolyte strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The moderate halophile Halobacillus halophilus is the paradigm for chloride dependent growth in prokaryotes. Recent experiments shed light on the molecular basis of the chloride dependence that is reviewed here.

Application of sucrose modulates the expressions of genes involved in proline and polyamine metabolism in maize seedlings exposed to drought

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2019
Sucrose, proline, and polyamines are compatible solutes accumulating in plant tissues and increasing cellular osmolarity under environmental stresses. These compatible solutes and hydrogen peroxide can function as signaling molecules in plants. There has

Bacterial use of choline to tolerate salinity shifts in sea-ice brines

open access: yesElementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2016
Bacteria within the brine network of sea ice experience temperature-driven fluctuations in salinity on both short and long temporal scales, yet their means of osmoprotection against such fluctuations is poorly understood.

Potential of temperature- and salinity-driven shifts in diatom compatible solute concentrations to impact biogeochemical cycling within sea ice

open access: yesElementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2020
Sea-ice algae are an important source of primary production in polar regions, yet we have limited understanding of their responses to the seasonal cycling of temperature and salinity.
