[EN] The maintenance of ionic homeostasis is essential for cell viability, thus the activity of plasma membrane ion transporters must be tightly controlled. Previous studies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae revealed that the ...

[EN] Here, we review and update the recent advances in the metabolic control during the adaptive response of budding yeast to hyperosmotic and salt stress, which is one of the best understood signaling events at the molecular ...

[EN] DNA binding with One Finger (DOF) transcription factors are involved in multiple aspects of plant growth and development but their precise roles in abiotic stress tolerance are largely unknown. Here we report a group ...

[EN] Abstract Introduction Salinity and drought are the most important environmental stress conditions reducing crop yields worldwide and limiting the distribution of wild plants in nature. Soil salinity, especially ...

[EN] Abstract Previous works into photosynthesis regulation under salt stress have focused on the effect of NaCl, although other salts may significantly contribute to the toxicity of saline soils. In this paper, the effects ...

[EN] Different adverse environmental conditions cause oxidative stress in plants by generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Accordingly, a general response to abiotic stress is the activation of enzymatic and ...

[EN] Salinity is a major environmental constraint on crop productivity and grafting can be a sustainable strategy to enhance plant tolerance under adverse growth conditions. Screening different graft combinations under ...

[EN] Polyploidy is very common in higher plants and is one of the main forces driving evolution, as it leads to changes that may favor plant adaptation. In citrus, polyploid breeding has provided great advantage, enabling ...

[EN] In the present work the physiological consequences of sphingolipid degradation was studied, which is conserved between yeast and humans. In this metabolic pathway, sphingosine–1–phosphate and dihydrosphingosine are ...

[EN] Proline (Pro) and glycine betaine (GB) contents were determined in two Mediterranean halophytes, Plantago crassifolia and Inula crithmoides, to assess their possible role in salt tolerance of both taxa. Plant material ...
