Physiological causes for decreased productivity under high salinity in Boma, a tetraploid Chloris gayana cultivar
(CSIRO Publishing, 2001)Rhodes grass (Chloris gayana Kunth) is widely cultivated in the semi-arid tropics and favoured for salt tolerance; nevertheless, productivity decreases significantly under saline conditions, especially in tetraploid ... -
Elongation growth in leaf blades of Chloris gayana under saline conditions
(Elsevier, 2003)In Chloris gayana, salinity-associated yield decreases are due mainly to leaf area reductions. To understand the physiological basis for such reduction, the effects of salinity were studied on the spatial and temporal ... -
The Activity of the Chloroplastic Ndh Complex Is Regulated by Phosphorylation of the NDH-F Subunit
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2003-05-01)Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) induces increases, to different degrees, in transcripts, protein levels, and activity of the Ndh complex (EC 1.6.5.3). In the present work, we have compared the effects of relatively excess light, ... -
Decreased reactive oxygen species concentration in the elongation zone contributes to the reduction in maize leaf growth under salinity
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2004-06)Reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the apoplast of cells in the growing zone of grass leaves are required for elongation growth. This work evaluates whether salinity‐induced reductions in leaf elongation are related to altered ... -
Drought controls on H2O2 accumulation, catalase (CAT) activity and CAT gene expression in wheat
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2005-01)Plants co-ordinate information derived from many diverse external and internal signals to ensure appropriate control of gene expression under optimal and stress conditions. In this work, the relationships between catalase ... -
Why are Chloris gayana leaves shorter in salt-affected plants? Analyses in the elongation zone
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2006-11)Reduced hydraulic conductance calculated from growth data was suggested to be the main reason for reduced leaf expansion in salt-stressed Chloris gayana (Rhodes grass). In this work, xylem vessel cross-sections and wall ... -
Superoxide dismutase and glutathione reductase overexpression in wheat protoplast: photooxidative stress tolerance and changes in cellular redox state
(Springer, 2008-08-26)In previous works, we have established a correlation between antioxidant system response and tolerance to drought, osmotic stress and photooxidative stress of different wheat cultivars with contrasting drought tolerance. ... -
Reductions in Maize Root-tip Elongation by Salt and Osmotic Stress do not Correlate with Apoplastic O2•− Levels
(Oxford Academic Press, 2008-10)Background and Aims: Experimental evidence in the literature suggests that O2•− produced in the elongation zone of roots and leaves by plasma membrane NADPH oxidase activity is required for growth. This study explores ... -
Leaf expansion in grasses under salt stress
(Elsevier, 2009-07)Restriction of leaf growth is among the earliest visible effects of many stress conditions, including salinity. Because leaves determine radiation interception and are the main photosynthetic organs, salinity effects on ... -
Physiological characterization of four model Lotus diploid genotypes: L. japonicus (MG20 and Gifu), L. filicaulis, and L. burttii under salt stress
(Elsevier, 2009-09-25)The genus Lotus comprises a heterogeneous group of annual and perennial species. Lotus japonicus (with MG20 and Gifu ecotypes) has been adopted as one of the model legumes in genetic and genomic studies. Other Lotus species, ... -
Involvement of nitrate reductase (NR) in osmotic stress-induced NO generation of Arabidopsis thaliana L. roots
(Elsevier, 2010-01)Nitric oxide (NO) is undoubtedly a potential signal molecule in diverse developmental processes and stress responses. Despite our extensive knowledge about the role of NO in physiological and stress responses, the source ... -
Are Sunflower chlorotic mottle virus infection symptoms modulated by early increases in leaf sugar concentration?
(Elsevier, 2010-09-15)Symptom development in a susceptible sunflower line inoculated with Sunflower chlorotic mottle virus (SuCMoV) was followed in the second pair of leaves at different post-inoculation times: before symptom expression (BS), ... -
Evaluation of bradyrhizobia strains isolated from field-grown soybean plants in Argentina as improved inoculants
(Springer, 2010-09-22)Bradyrhizobium strains were isolated from nodules obtained from field-grown soybean plants sampled in 12 soybean production locations in Argentina. These fields had been annually cropped with soybean and did not show ... -
Salinity induced anatomical and morphological changes in Chloris gayana Kunth roots
(Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, 2011)Chloris gayana Kunth is a grass species valuable as forage which was introduced into Argentina to be used as pasture in saline soils of subtropical and warm-temperate zones, given its good adaptability to drought, salinity ... -
Inducción de variabilidad genética para tolerancia a estreses abióticos mediante técnicas de cultivo in vitro en Cenchrus ciliaris L.
(Universidad Internacional de Andalucía, 2011)El presente trabajo está enmarcado en un proyecto nacional del Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Agropecuaria (INTA) relacionado con la introducción, caracterización y mejoramiento de especies forrajeras subtropicales. En ... -
Evaluación morfológica del cultivar de buffelgrass “Lucero INTA-PEMAN” en condiciones de sequía
