Overexpression of BetS, a Sinorhizobium meliloti High-Affinity Betaine Transporter, in Bacteroids from Medicago sativa Nodules Sustains Nitrogen Fixation During Early Salt Stress Adaptation

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2006
Sinorhizobium meliloti possesses several betaine transporters to cope with salt stress, and BetS represents a crucial high-affinity glycine and proline betaine uptake system involved in the rapid acquisition of betaines by cells subjected to osmotic ...

Polar Lipids and Glycine Betaine from Haloalkaliphilic Archaebacteria [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology, 1988
SUMMARY: The major polar lipids from haloalkaliphilic archaebacteria of the genera Natronobacterium and Natronococcus have been analysed by spectroscopic methods, including 13C NMR, to establish unequivocal structural detail. Diether forms of phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and phosphatidyl-glycerophosphate (PGP) are the major polar lipids; PGP is the main ...

Glycine betaine transport in Escherichia coli: osmotic modulation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1985
Exogenous glycine betaine highly stimulates the growth rate of various members of the Enterobacteriaceae, including Escherichia coli, in media with high salt concentrations (D. Le Rudulier and L. Bouillard, Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 46:152-159, 1983). In a nitrogen- and carbon-free medium, glycine betaine did not support the growth of E. coli either on

Soil Silicon Application Alleviates Drought Stress in Sugar Beet (Beta vulgaris L.)

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: The increasing frequency and intensity of drought events have led to yield and quality losses in sugar beet production in temperate regions in Central Europe. Under arid conditions, silicon (Si) application reduced beet yield losses under drought. Similar data for temperate climates are missing.

Determination of .BETA.-alanine betaine and glycine betaine in some marine invertebrates.

open access: yesNIPPON SUISAN GAKKAISHI, 1975
A method for the determination of β-alanine betaine and glycine betaine is described. It is based on an ion-exchange chromatographic separation with a Dowex 50-X12 column and subsequent colorimetric determination of both betaines as reineckate. The recovery was satisfactory, ranging from 97 to 100%.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

Targeted keratin repair: A plant‐based approach to hair strength and surface restoration

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Application of Avena strigosa seed extract may reinforce keratin bonding, restoring hair fibre integrity by promoting intramolecular interactions at damaged sites of keratin proteins. Abstract Objective Chemical and thermal stress disrupts the intramolecular and intermolecular interactions that stabilize hair keratin, leading to structural degradation ...

Unveiling the Enigmatic Structure of TdCMO Transcripts in Durum Wheat

open access: yesAgronomy, 2018
Durum wheat is one of the oldest and most important edible cereal crops and its cultivation has considerable economic importance in many countries. However, adverse conditions, such as high irradiance and increasing salinity of soils, could lead to a ...
