High throughput sequencing of RNA transcriptomes in Ruditapes philippinarum identifies genes involved in osmotic stress response

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Ruditapes philippinarum, is an economically important marine bivalve species. The ability to cope with low salinity stress is quite important for the survival of aquatic species under natural conditions. In this study, the transcriptional response of the

Modelling the effects of osmotic stress on tomato fruit development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Whereas most high-tech tomato greenhouses focus primarily on high production yields, consumers prefer a higher quality product. Dry matter content is one of the key factors determining fruit quality, and is known to be substantially influenced by ...

Low salinity stress increases the risk of Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection and gut microbiota dysbiosis in Pacific white shrimp

open access: yesBMC Microbiology
Background Extreme precipitation events often cause sudden drops in salinity, leading to disease outbreaks in shrimp aquaculture. Evidence suggests that environmental stress increases animal host susceptibility to pathogens.

Evaluation of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) genotypes for salinity tolerance under field conditions using the stress indices

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2018
Developing a suitable method for properly screening barley tolerance under salt stress is of great significance. Barley (an excellent model for the prediction of crop response to climate change) salt tolerance was investigated using stress tolerance ...

H2O2 Signature and Innate Antioxidative Profile Make the Difference Between Sensitivity and Tolerance to Salt in Rice Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Salt tolerance is a complex trait that varies between and within species. H2O2 profiles as well as antioxidative systems have been investigated in the cultured cells of rice obtained from Italian rice varieties with different salt tolerance.

Overexpression of Hevea brasiliensis ethylene response factor HbERF-IXc5 enhances growth and tolerance to abiotic stress and affects laticifer differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ethylene response factor 1 (ERF1) is an essential integrator of the jasmonate and ethylene signalling pathways coordinating a large number of genes involved in plant defences.

Transcription factors-golden keys to modulate the plant metabolism to develop salinity tolerance

open access: yesPlant Stress
Abiotic stressors such as drought, low temperature, heavy metals, waterlogging, nutrient imbalance, and salinity are major factors that affect the growth and development of crop plants, which, in turn, results in severe loss in production and yield of ...
