Project description:In order to reveal so far unknown facets of the adaptation of B. subtilis to growth under high-salinity conditions, a whole-transcriptome analysis of B. subtilis BSB (168 Trp+) was performed using strand-specific tiling arrays (tiling step of 22 nucleotides). In addition, the effects of glycine betaine (GB) were analyzed under high salinity and standard growth conditions in a chemically defined medium. Important novel findings were a sustained low-level induction of the SigB-dependent general stress response and strong repression of biofilm matrix genes under high-salinity conditions. GB influences gene expression not only under high-salinity, but also under standard growth conditions without additional salt.

Project description:The mechanisms of cellular and molecular adaptation of fungi to salinity have been commonly drawn from halotolerant strains, although some exceptions in basidiomycete fungi can be found. These studies have been conducted in settings where cells are subjected to stress, either hypo or hyperosmotic, which can be a confounding factor in describing physiological mechanisms related to salinity. Here, we have studied transcriptomic changes in Aspergillus sydowii, a halophilic species, when growing in three different salinity conditions (No salt, 0.5M and 2.0M NaCl). In this fungus salinity related responses occur under high salinity (2.0M NaCl) and not when cultured under optimal conditions (0.5M NaCl), suggesting that in this species, most of the mechanisms described for halophilic growth are a consequence of saline stress response and not an adaptation to saline conditions.

Project description:To understand affected genes by HDA19 and HDA5/14/15/18 under salinity stress conditions, hda19 and hda5/14/15/18 mutants and control (Col-0) plants were analyzed under normal and salinity stress conditions using Arabidopsis custom microarrays (GEO array platform: GPL19830).
Project description:In order to understand molecular mechanisms of salt stress tolerance in rice several researches have been reported, however there are still unclear processes involved in salt tolerance. For reaching to a better perspective of the molecular mechanisms, we designed a comprehensive transcriptome study consisting contrasting genotypes, different tissues and different sampling time points. Two contrasting genotypes were selected and grown in Yoshida hydroponic medium for 14 days under controlled conditions. For salinity stress half of the seedlings were under 150 mM NaCl and after 6 and 54 h the treated and untreated samples were harvested in three replications from roots and shoots separately
