   1.1.1.224 | expression in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plants, the transformed plants show reduced salt injury, less inhibition of vegetative growth, and increased seed production, thus increased salt tolerance, relative to the wild-type plants. When treated with 200 mM NaCl, transformants produce no seeds, but do bolt, and exhibit less chlorosis/necrosis and greater survival and dry weights than the wild-type. Without salt there are no M6PR effects on growth or phenotype, but expression levels of 2272 genes are altered, e.g upregulation of ABA receptor genes, PYL4, PYL5, and PYL6, and downregulation of protein phosphatase 2C genes, ABI1 and ABI2, overview |
