The comparative study of physiological reaction to salt, alkali and mixed salt stresses in two ecotypes of grey-green and yellow-green of Leymus chinensis were made. At the stage of seedling, the content of chlorophyll and the leakage rate of electrolyte of leaves, free proline, Na/K of tillers were
BACKGROUND
Although it has been widely accepted that global changes will pose the most important constrains to plant survival and distribution, our knowledge of the adaptive mechanism for plant with large-scale environmental changes (e.g. drought and high temperature) remains limited.
RESULTS
An
The physiological response of two divergent Leymus chinensis types (grey-green type and yellow-green type) to drought stress was studied by pot experiment. At seedling stage, some physiological indexes of the plants and leaves were measured by taking the divergent types under stress of polyethylene
Grasses can be infected simultaneously by endophytic fungi and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that endophyte-associated drought resistance of a native grass was affected by an AM fungus. In a greenhouse experiment, we compared the performance of
Fructans play vital roles in abiotic stress tolerance in plants. In this study, we isolated the sucrose:6-fructosyltransferase gene, which is involved in the synthesis of fructans, from Leymus mollis by rapid amplification of cDNA ends. The Lm-6-SFT gene was introduced into
Somatic embryos and plants were produced from cultured inflorescence and leaf segments of Triticum aestivum X Leymus anaustus F1 hybrids and the parental lines. Inflorescences showed a better capacity for somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration than leaves. Leymus anaustus produced the highest
Employing monocotyledon Aneurolepidium chinense and dicotyledon Helianthus annuus, the two species with high alkali-saline resistance as test materials, and stressing them with neutral, alkalic, and mixed salts, this paper studied the characteristics of various stresses and their interrelations,
On the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, the high-altitudinal gradients can negatively affect plant distribution and limit plant growth and reproduction. Leymus secalinus (Georgi) Tzvel. is an important forage crop on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and has an excellent ability to fix sand and improve soil. To
Plants have different physiological characteristics as the season changes, grazing management in compliance with plant growth and development characteristics may provide new ideas for sustainable livestock development. However, there has been little research on seasonal grazing and plants
Previously, we identified >1,500 genes that were induced by high salt stress in sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis, Gramineae: Triticeae) when comparing the changes in their transcription levels in response to high salt stress by next-generation sequencing. Among the identified genes, a gene of unknown
Sheepgrass [Leymus chinensis (Trin.) Tzvel.] is a dominant, rhizomatous grass that has extensive plasticity in adapting to various harsh environments. Based on data from 454 high-throughput sequencing (GS FLX) exposure to salt stress, an unknown functional MYB-related gene LcMYB1 was identified from
Salt stress is becoming an increasing threat to global agriculture. In this study, physiological and proteomics analysis were performed using a salt-tolerant grass species, Leymus chinensis (L. chinensis). The aim of this study is to understand the potential mechanism of salt tolerance in L.
Leymus chinensis is an important perennial forage grass natively distributed in the Eurasian Steppe. However, little is known about the molecular mechanism of its adaptation to extreme environmental conditions. Based on L. chinensis cold-treated sequence database, a highly expressed
