Abstract:
... The almond crop has high economic importance on a global scale, but its sensitivity to salinity stress can cause severe yield losses. Salt-tolerant rootstocks are vital for crop economic feasibility under saline conditions. Two commercial rootstocks submitted to salinity, and evaluated through different parameters, had contrasting results with the survival rates of 90.6% for 'Rootpac 40' (tolerant ...
... A novel MOF@HOF composite that can serve as a matrix for analysis of small molecules by MALDI-TOF-MS was fabricated through a simple solvothermal method. Taking falvonoids as an example, this composite/matrix presents high desorption/ionization efficiency, low background interference, high salt tolerance, and satisfactory signal reproducibility for MALDI-TOF-MS analysis. ...
... Mature whey protein concentrate (WPC) fibrils can act as secondary nuclei to induce fibrillation. Multiple rounds of nuclei induced aggregation could introduce differences in their ability to form fibrils. The second induction fabricated the highest population of fibrils, while the sixth induction lost the ability of fibrillation. Salt-tolerant fibrils through multiple inductions were produced, bu ...
salttolerance, etc ; desorption; molecular weight; polymers; Show all 4 Subjects
Abstract:
... Traditional matrices for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) are usually crystalline small molecules. The heterogeneous co-crystallization of the analyte and the matrix creates a sweet spot effect and reduces point-to-point reproducibility. In this study, an amorphous poly-N-vinylcarbazole polymer (PVK) was studied as a novel matrix for MALDI-TOF MS to dete ...
salttolerance, etc ; freshwater; humans; research; salinity; streams; surveys; Show all 7 Subjects
Abstract:
... Salinity is increasing in many naturally fresh waters because of human activities, and there are concerns about the ecological effects of these increases. Salinity, as with any stressor, can affect organisms both directly and indirectly. In a previous study (Bray et al. 2019), we evaluated the relative importance of direct and indirect effects of increased salinity on stream invertebrates. Chessma ...

Abstract:
... The halophilic yeast Debaryomyces hansenii has been studied for several decades, serving as eukaryotic model for understanding salt and osmotic tolerance. Nevertheless, lack of consensus among different studies is found and, sometimes, contradictory information derived from studies performed in very diverse conditions. These two factors hampered its establishment as the key biotechnological player ...

This study presented an integrated SVM classification method that investigated the relationship between intrinsic scattering attributes of the surface features and the conductivity characteristics of the soil in the newly proposed two- and three-dimensional classification (2D and 3D) schema to classify the saline landscape. The study was conducted in the Vellore district, Tamil Nadu, which is comp ...

Abstract:
... Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) has been widely applied in the analysis of phospholipids in biological samples. However, it remains a challenge to improve the sensitivity and reproducibility and to control the background noise of matrices. In this study, black phosphorus nanomaterial was used as the matrix of MALDI-MS, and microchannel technique was combine ...
salttolerance, etc ; Arabidopsis; Zea mays; corn; leaves; mutants; sumoylation; ubiquitin-protein ligase; Show all 8 Subjects
Abstract:
... SUMOylation is a critical post-translational modification that regulates the nature and activity of protein substrates. The reaction is usually enhanced by a SIZ/PIAS-type of SUMO E3 ligase, but the functions of its homologs in maize have not yet been reported. In this study, we functionally characterized three members of this family of SUMO ligases, ZmSIZ1a, ZmSIZ1b, and ZmSIZ1c, from Zea mays. T ...

Abstract:
... The organisms surviving in extreme environments deploy system support including self-protection, and energy distribution to counter extreme environmental stresses. The biological adaptations provide clues about the metabolic networks and regulatory circuits involved in their success in survival to extreme environments of these organisms. Besides this, genes and proteins of these extremophiles have ...

Abstract:
... The interaction between cytokinin, auxin and GA controlled in vitro shoot multiplication in paulownia was influenced by a medium water potential (Ψ) modulation, where it was modulated using different textures or strengths of MS medium, media of different types (MS, WPM, SH and B5) or NaCl incorporation. The interaction between 2 mg/L BAP and 0.1 mg/L NAA expressed the highest shoot number on each ...

Abstract:
... Salt stress is an important abiotic stress, which has seriously affected the reproductive development of rice in many parts of the world. Therefore, it is particularly important to understand the genetic mechanism of salt tolerance in rice. In this study, we preliminarily located some quantitative trait loci (QTL) for root length, bud length, and survival percent under different salinity condition ...

Abstract:
... Trace Co²⁺, when present in large quantities, is harmful to the environment and therefore cannot be ignored. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is a standard method used to detect metal ions, however, detecting trace Co²⁺ under high saline conditions can be challenging. Similarly, existing Co²⁺ treatment methods are prone to secondary pollution and have high energy consumption. ...
salttolerance, etc ; hydrogen; hydrophobicity; molecular dynamics; polymers; salt content; viscosity; water solubility; Show all 8 Subjects
Abstract:
... Salt tolerance is one of the important properties of hydrophobically associating water-soluble polymers (HAWSPs). In this work, HAWSPs with different hydrophobic monomer (M₁₂) contents (0.3 mol% and 0.5 mol%) were synthesized. The viscosity of two polymers was measured. Molecular simulation (MS) were carried out to elucidate the salt tolerance mechanism. Results show that the polymer with a higher ...

Abstract:
... Emulsification is one of the important processes in chemical flooding to mobilize the residual oil in wells following secondary recovery. Oil displacement efficiency is enhanced and volumetric sweep efficiency is increased by engineering the interactions of the supporting chemicals used with the geological formations present in the wells. Polymers and surfactants are often applied to enhanced oil ...

Abstract:
... Organisms that rely on aquatic habitats in roaded landscapes face a growing array of consequences from pollution, especially due to freshwater salinization. Critically, these consequences can vary from population to population depending on exposure histories and evolutionary responses. Prior studies using transplant and common garden experiments have found that aquatic-stage wood frogs (Rana sylva ...

Abstract:
... Air-nanobubble water (NBW) was applied to pre-acclimate anaerobically digested sludge that was then used as the inoculum in the two-stage anaerobic digestion (AD) of high saline (20 g NaCl/L) food waste (FW) to optimize NBW application in the AD of high saline FW. K⁺ was simultaneously supplemented during the methanogenic stage to resist the inhibition of salt on methanogens. Results showed that a ...

Abstract:
... Salinity is one of the oldest and most serious environmental problems in the world. The increasingly widespread salinization of soils and water resources represents a growing threat to agriculture around the world. A strategy to cope with this problem is to cultivate salt-tolerant crops and, therefore, it is necessary to identify plant species that are naturally adapted to high-salinity conditions ...
