Abstract:
An experiment was conducted to evaluate the role of plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) in mitigating salinity stress in Trigonella foenum graecum. Plants were subjected to three different levels of salinity viz 0, 70 and 150 mM NaCl (electrical conductivity value 0.01, 7.67 and 15.50 mS cm-1 , respectively) using a completely randomized design experiment. PGPB showed positive effects in mitigation of salinity stress in fenugreek plants and elevated various growth responses viz. shoot and root length, shoot and root dry weight, leaf area and number of leaves as compared to uninocul

Abstract:
Salinity is a complex environmental stress that affects growth and production of agriculturally important crops world-wide. Tolerance to salt stress is variable for different plants and involves integration of various physiological and biochemical mechanisms.

Transgenic lines overexpressing OsTPKa, OsTPKb and OsAKT1 were generated using Agrobacterium mediated rice transformation, while for OsAKT1 a loss of function mutant was also isolated. Transgenic a

Our lab has shown that the bile salt found in the highest concentration in human fecal water, sodium deoxycholate, induces apoptosis in several cell types including Jurkat cells as well as human colonic epithelial cells.

Abstract:
Salinity stress is one of the main challenges for crop growth and production. The estimated loss of crop yield due to salinity stress is up to 20% worldwide each year. Plants have evolved an array of mechanisms to defend themselves against salinity stress. A key aspect of plant responses to salinity stress is the engagement of a nitrosative burst that results in nitric oxide (NO) accumulation. A major mechanism for the transfer of NO bioactivity is S-nitrosylation which is a modification of the reactive thiol group of a rare but highly active cysteine residue within a protein through the addit

High soil salinity is a major environmental stress that adversely affects crop production throughout the world. It is now estimated that half of the world’s cropland is affected by salt stress.

Recent studies indicated that epigenetic modifications induced by environmental stress can be inherited over several generations, despite a genomewide epigenetic resetting of epigenetic imprints

Abstract:
The present study aimed to examine the effects of root colonization in tomato, Solanum lycopersicum L. cv. Moneymaker, by the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus, Glomus intraradices Shenck and Smith, on alleviating salt stress. I postulated that AM symbiosis increases tomato plant performance to salt stress. Two greenhouse experiments were done according to a randomized factorial experimental design. The results showed a significantly higher level of AM root colonization that also occurred earlier in salt than non-salt treated plants. There were also positive interactions between root coloniza

Abstract:
Salinity is a major abiotic stress in plant agriculture which reduces seed germination, vegetative growth, and flowering, and limits crop productivity world-wide. Salinity causes water deficit, ion toxicity, and nutrient deficiency in plants, which can result in cellular damage, growth reduction, and even death. Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) is the most widely used cool-season species in cool-arid climates; however it has relatively poor salt-tolerance. Thus the development of Kentucky bluegrass genotypes with increased salt tolerance is of interest to turf breeders. One impediment to

Abstract:
Plant tolerance to salinity stress involves complex physiological traits, metabolic pathways, and molecular and gene networks (Gupta and Huang, 2014, Int J Genomics). Salinity impacts plants by causing osmotic stress and ion toxicity. Salt stress also causes the production of excessive reactive oxygen species (Munns and Tester, 2008, Annu Rev Plant Biol). Salt-stress perception and signalling are required for appropriate responses to these insults. Key components of the signalling pathways induced by salt stress are Ca2+ (Knight et al., 1997, Plant J), NO and the recently re-evaluated H2O2.

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.<br>This work examines the use of laser peening (LP) for mitigation of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in marine grade aluminum alloys (Al-Mg). These alloys can be sensitized during welding and will develop a tensile residual stress in the heat affected zone that may promote SCC in a salt water environment. Metal inert gas welded aluminum alloy 5083 (4.8wt% Mg) plate was laser peened using a variety of laser intensities to create compressive stresses. Mechanical tests were performed to investigate the SCC of the material including slow str
