The interaction of salinity and nitrogen availability on the growth and accumulation of proline and glycinebetaine by Spartina alterniflora Loisel. grown in hydroponic solution in controlled environements was investigated. Growth of shoots was reduced by increasing salinity and enhanced at higher
The possible interaction of high soil salinity and low soil nitrogen content in affecting the growth of Spartina alterniflora Loisel in the high and low marshes of the Eastern U.S. was explored. Throughout the whole growing season, the short plants growing in the high marsh, where there was a higher
Salinity and drought are the most important environmental constraints limiting crop growth and productivity. Here, we have characterized a gene 'SaβNAC' encoding the β subunit of nascent polypeptide associated complex from a halophyte Spartina alterniflora and investigated its role toward abiotic
Sea level rise (SLR) imposes increasing salinity and inundation stresses in salt marshes which simultaneously face invasions by exotic plant species. We aimed to improve and apply knowledge on the ecophysiological responses of halophytes to SLR to conservation management of salt marshes. In a
Salinity is one of the most important environmental constraints limiting agricultural productivity. Considering the importance of the accumulation of osmolytes, myo-inositol in particular, in halophytic plant's adaptive response to salinity, an effort was made to overexpress the SaINO1 gene from the
BACKGROUND
SUMO (Small Ubiquitin related Modifier) conjugation is a post translational regulatory process found in all eukaryotes, mediated by SUMO activating enzyme, SUMO conjugating enzyme, and SUMO ligase for the attachment of SUMO to its target protein. Although the mechanism for regulation of
The C4 grass Spartina alterniflora is known for its unique salt tolerance and strong preference for ammonium (NH4+) as a nitrogen (N) source. We here examined whether Spartina's unique preference for NH4+ results in improved performance under drought stress. Manipulative greenhouse experiments were
