Mechanisms of salinity tolerance. (2008, background): “At low concentrations, these solutes presumably have another role, perhaps in stabilizing the tertiary structure of proteins, and function as osmoprotectants (108).”
Synthesis of organic osmolytes and salt tolerance mechanisms in Paspalum vaginatum (2008, background): “All rights reserved. doi:10.1016/j.envexpbot.2007.10.009 ible osmolytes that accumulate is provision of osmotic stress protection by allow osmotic adjustment to counteract higher inorganic salts in the vacuole and in root medium (Bohnert and Shen, 1999; Zhu, 2001; Rhodes et al., 2002).”
Colonization with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi improves salinity tolerance of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) plants (2010, background): “A further important role for proline related to enhanced drought and salt tolerance of plants is its ability for scavenging hydroxyl radicals ( Rhodes et al. 2004 ).”
Gene Expression Profiling of Plants under Salt Stress (2011, background): “Examples of such compounds are sugars, polyols, proline, and quaternary ammonium (e.g., glycinebetaine and polyamines) (Rhodes et al., 2002).”
