Beyond osmolytes and transporters: novel plant salt-stress tolerance-related genes from transcriptional profiling data. (2006, background): “…linked to different pathways and processes such as stress perception and signaling, leading to molecular, biochemical, cellular, physiological, and morphological adaptations to finally the whole-plant response (Flowers 2004, Bartels and Sunkar 2005, Chinnusamy et al. 2005, Vinocur and Altman 2005).”
Antioxidant enzyme activity, proline accumulation, leaf area and cell membrane stability in water stressed Amaranthus leaves (2014, background): “Proline is also known to induce expression stress responsive genes, such as drought and salt stress (Chinnusamy et al., 2005; Dawood et al., 2014; Zhu et al., 1998).”
Recent molecular advances to combat abiotic stress tolerance in crop plants (2011, background): “To overcome such constraints, enhancing tolerance towards multiple stresses by a gene encoding a stress inducible transcription factor that regulates a number of other genes is a promising approach (Yamaguchi-Shinozaki et al., 1994; Chinnusamy et al., 2005).”
Polyamine accumulation in transgenic eggplant enhances tolerance to multiple abiotic stresses and fungal resistance (2007, background): “Genetic engineering, especially the engineering of biosynthetic pathways associated with stress responses has emerged as a promising way to improve tolerance in crop plants (Flowers 2004; Chinnusamy et al. 2005; Kumar et al. 2006).”
Genetic diversity analysis of rice cultivars (Oryza sativa L.) differing in salinity tolerance based on RAPD and SSR markers (2011, background): “Essential pathways that lead to synthesis of osmotically active metabolites (such as proline, glycinebetaine, sugars, etc.) and certain free radical scavenging enzymes help control ion and water flux and support scavenging of oxygen radicals (Chinnusamy et al. 2005).”
Mechanisms of high salinity tolerance in plants. (2007, background): “The salinity stress responsive genes, whose promoters contain proline responsive elements (PRE, ACTCAT), are also known to be induced by proline (see Chinnusamy et al., 2005).”
Proline: a key player in plant abiotic stress tolerance (2015, background): “Alternatively, proline might confer a protective effect by inducing stress-protective proteins (Khedr et al. 2003, Chinnusamy et al. 2005) and expression of salt stress responsive genes possessing proline responsive elements (e.g. PRE, ACTCAT) in their promoters (Satoh et al. 2002, Oono et al.…”
Halophyte Improvement for a Salinized World (2010, background): “In this approach, undesirable genes are often transferred in combination with desirable ones while reproductive barriers limit transfer of favorable alleles from interspecific and intergeneric sources (Chinnusamy et al., 2005).”
Salt Tolerance in Selected Vegetable Crops (2012, background): “However, vegetables are generally considered more vulnerable than staple crops to stressful environmental conditions including extremes of temperature, drought, salinity, waterlogging, mineral nutrient excess and deficiency, and changes in soil pH (Chinnusamy et al., 2005).”
Salt tolerance mechanisms in mangroves: a review (2010, background): “Sodium efflux through SOS1 under salinity is regulated by SOS3‐SOS2 kinase complex ( Chinnusamy et al. 2005 ).”
