NaCl-induzierter crassulaceensäurestoffwechsel bei Mesembryanthemum crystallinum
Zeitschrift für Pflanzenphysiologie, 1972Summary Mesembryanthemum crystallinum grown under saline conditions in NaCl medium shows the typical gas exchange reactions known from CAM plants, exhibiting a clear CO 2 uptake in the dark. This is accompanied by an increase of malate content in the leaves.

Regulation of Carbon Metabolism in Mesembryanthemum Crystallinum
1983Assays of enzyme activity in fractions obtained after Percoll density gradient certrifugation of protoplast extracts from Mesembryanthemum crystallinum performing exclusively C3 photosynthesis or Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) established the cytoplasmic location of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase and NADP-malic enzyme, the mitochondrial ...

Efficient plant regeneration of Mesembryanthemum crystallinum via somatic embryogenesis
Plant Cell Reports, 2000An efficient plant regeneration procedure has been established from hypocotyl explants of the common ice plant, Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L, a halophytic leaf succulent that exhibits a stress-induced switch from C3 photosynthesis to crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM).

Mechanism of Invasion and Dominance of Coastal Grassland by Mesembryanthemum crystallinum
Ecological Monographs, 1977The invasion of Mesembryanthemum crystallinum into coastal grassland was observed at Surf on the central coast of California, USA. The species became established in areas unoccupied or sparsely occupied by other plants, and then grew into surrounding areas.

Genetic responsiveness to copper in the Ice Plant, Mesembryanthemum crystallinum
Plant Science, 2004Abstract To better understand genetic responsiveness to stress, Mesembryanthemum crystallinum plants were challenged with copper and then analyzed for mRNAs corresponding to the salt inducible and constitutive forms of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPCase) (Ppc1 and Ppc2 respectively), and a senescence inducible cysteine protease (Sep7).

Responses to Salt Stress in the Halophyte Mesembryanthemum Crystallinum
1994The halophyte Mesembryanthemum crystallinum (common ice plant) has emerged as a model system suitable to advance our understanding of mechanisms that have evolved in a species adapted to harsh environments, characterized by drought and salt stress conditions.

Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L.: A potential invasive plant in Tunisia
International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Growth Evaluation, 2022Biological invasions are considered as one of the most serious threats to the biodiversity. Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L. (Aizoaceae) is reported invasive in many regions over the world. This paper aim to monitor its distribution in the Kerkennah islands and update its invasive status.

CAM Induction in Mesembryanthemum crystallinum: Protein Expression
1989When Mesembryanthemum crystallinum is irrigated with nutrient solutions containing high amounts of sodium chloride, the plants shift from C3 to CAM photosynthesis. We have measured the amounts of three CAM enzymes, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEP-Case), pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK) and NADP-malic enzyme (NADP-ME) over the induction ...

Light-induced betacyanin and flavonol accumulation in bladder cells of Mesembryanthemum crystallinum
Phytochemistry, 1999Treatment of the halophyte Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L. (ice plant) (Aizoaceae) with high intensities of white light resulted in a rapid cell-specific accumulation of betacyanins and flavonoids with 6-methoxyisorhamnetin 3-O-¿[(2"'-E-feruloyl)-3"'-O-(beta-D- glucopyranosyl)](2"-O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl)]-beta-D-glucopyranoside (mesembryanthin) as the
