Overexpression Analysis of Suggests Its Involvement in Salt Tolerance and Flavonoid Pathway in .

Soil salinization is a significant environmental stress factor, threatening global agricultural yield and ecological security. Plants must effectively cope with the adverse effects of salt stress on survival and successful reproduction. Lateral Organ Boundaries (LOB) Domain (LBD) genes, a gene family encoding plant-specific transcription factors (TFs), play important roles in plant growth and development.

Water deficit mechanisms in perennial shrubs leaves revealed by physiological and proteomic analyses.

Background: Drought (Water deficit, WD) poses a serious threat to extensively economic losses of trees throughout the world. Chinese dwarf cherry () is a good perennial plant for studying the physiological and sophisticated molecular network under WD. The aim of this study is to identify the effect of WD on through physiological and global proteomics analysis and improve understanding of the WD resistance of plants.
