Genotype-by-Environment Interaction and Plasticity: Exploring Genomic Responses of Plants to the Abiotic Environment (2013, background): “…for identifying complex regulatory networks from differentially expressed gene sets (Zou et al. 2011), generating hypotheses about important downstream responses (Battaglia et al. 2008), and identifying potential crosstalk and pleiotropy of responses across stresses (Yoshioka & Shinozaki 2009).”
Quinoa – a Model Crop for Understanding Salt-tolerance Mechanisms in Halophytes (2016, background): “In addition, dehydrins have been found in nearly all vegetative tissues under stress conditions, such as drought, cold, and high salinity (Rorat 2006; Battaglia et al. 2008).”
Research Advances in Mechanisms of Turfgrass Tolerance to Abiotic Stresses: From Physiology to Molecular Biology (2014, background): “Beard (2004) summarized the relative drought resistance of 35 turfgrass species and reported that drought resistance is superior for dactylon bermudagrass, hybrid bermudagrass, and seashore paspalum, excellent for zoysiagrasses and buffalograss, and medium for tall fescue, perennial ryegrass, and Ke”
Effect of salinity stress on plants and its tolerance strategies: a review (2015, background): “Hydrophilic proteins with osmoprotective function (e.g., proteins from LEA superfamilyincluding dehydrins) have been found to be elevated (reviewed in Battaglia et al. 2008; Hundertmark andHincha 2008; Kosová et al. 2010).”
Insights into Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) Proteins in Plants: From Structure to the Functions (2014, methodology): “An additional motif also found in this group is the Y-segment, whose conserved consensus sequence is VTD [E/Q] YGNP [19], usually found in one to 35 tandem copies in the N-terminus of the protein; this motif has similar amino acid sequence to the nucleotide binding domain found in chaperones of plan”
LEA Proteins: Versatility of Form and Function (2010, background): “Perhaps the main feature distinguishing naturally anhydrobiotic organisms is that they produce many examples of highly hydrophilic proteins (a subset of which have been called “hydrophilins”; Garay-Arroyo et al. 2000; Battaglia et al. 2008) in preparation for severe dehydration.”
Recent Updates on Salinity Stress in Rice: From Physiological to Molecular Responses (2011, background): “In plants, a group of very hydrophilic proteins, known as Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA), accumulates to high levels both during the last stage of seed maturation (when the embryo acquires desiccation tolerance) and during water deficit in vegetative organs, suggesting a protective role during wa”
