Optimization of Extraction Process, Structural Characterization and Component Analysis of Total Flavonoids from Mesembryanthemum crystallinum

Shipin gongye ke-ji, 2022
In this study, the ultrasound-assisted extraction conditions of total flavonoids were optimized, and the structure and composition of total flavonoids were further analyzed.

Salt Stress Perception and Plant Growth Regulators in the Halophyte Mesembryanthemum crystallinum [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1993
We selected indicators of four different metabolic processes (Crassulacean acid metabolism [CAM], amino acid and nitrogen mobilization metabolism, osmoprotection, and plant defense mechanisms) to study the relationship between salt-stress-mediated and plant growth regulator (PGR)-induced responses in Mesembryanthemum crystallinum (ice plant).

The crude plant juices of desert plants as appropriate culture media for the cultivation of rhizospheric microorganisms

Journal of Advanced Research, 2012
The exclusive use of plant juices, not as a mere supplement to synthetic culture media, for culturing rhizospheric microorganisms (RMO) is introduced here.

Ser123 Is Essential for the Water Channel Activity of McPIP2;1 from Mesembryanthemum crystallinum [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2010
The increased expression of McPIP2;1 (MipC), a root-specific aquaporin (AQP) from Mesembryanthemum crystallinum, under salt stress has suggested a role for this AQP in the salt tolerance of the plant. However, whether McPIP2;1 transports water or another solute and how its activity is regulated are so far unknown.

Stress Memory and the Inevitable Effects of Drought: A Physiological Perspective [PDF]

, 2016
Plants grow and develop by adjusting their physiology to changes in their environment. Changes in the abiotic environment occur over years, seasons and days, but also over minutes and even seconds.

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Starch‐degrading enzymes during the induction of CAM in Mesembryanthemum crystallinum

Plant, Cell & Environment, 1993
ABSTRACT Mesembryanthemum crystallinum plants were irrigated with 400 mol m−3 NaCl to induce CAM and levels of leaf starch, and activities of starch‐degrading enzymes were measured. During Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) induction, daily starch turnover gradually became more pronounced and was three‐ to four‐fold greater than in leaves of C3 plants ...

Effect of saline irrigation on Tetragonia tetragonioides (Pall.) Kuntze grown on different soil types under greenhouse conditions

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change and population growth are major challenges for sustainable food production, particularly in regions affected by water scarcity and soil salinization. In this context, halophytes represent promising candidates as alternative and sustainable food crops for salt‐affected areas.

Nitrogen metabolism-related enzymes in Mesembryanthemum crystallinum after Botrytis cinerea infection

Biologia Plantarum, 2018
We compared C3 and CAM (crassulacean acid metabolism) states in Mesembryanthemum crystallinum, a facultative CAM species, with respect to the involvement of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) and nitrogen metabolismrelated enzymes in plant response ...

Barley plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIP aquaporins) as water and CO2 transporters [PDF]

, 2008
We identified barley aquaporins and demonstrated that one, HvPIP2;1, transports water and CO2. Regarding water homeostasis in plants, regulations of aquaporin expression were observed in many plants under several environmental stresses. Under salt stress,
