Differential Accumulation of Metabolites in Suaeda Species Provides New Insights into Abiotic Stress Tolerance in C4-Halophytic Species in Elevated CO2 Conditions

Zinc tolerance and accumulation in the halophytic species

The investigating of sodium accumulation in some halophytic species of Zygophyllaceae, Polygonaceae, Asteraceae and Amaranthaceae

The identification of the characteristics of native halophytic species is very important for their practical application. The present study was carried out to identify the halophytic species of a desert and highly saline region around the city of Khosf, southern Khorasan Province, and to detect their general tolerance mechanisms (i.e. salt exclusion or inclusion). Sodium accumulation in the roo...

Independent and Parallel Evolution of New Genes by Gene Duplication in Two Origins of C4 Photosynthesis Provides New Insight into the Mechanism of Phloem Loading in C4 Species

UNLABELLED C4 photosynthesis is considered one of the most remarkable examples of evolutionary convergence in eukaryotes. However, it is unknown whether the evolution of C4 photosynthesis required the evolution of new genes. Genome-wide gene-tree species-tree reconciliation of seven monocot species that span two origins of C4 photosynthesis revealed that there was significant parallelism in the...
