“…The maintenance of a favorable photosynthetic rate implies the maintenance of growth under salt stress. Studies have shown that SA can efficiently ameliorate photosynthetic damage in Arabidopsis (Borsani et al, 2001), tomato (Molina et al, 2002), and cucumber seedlings (Shim et al, 2009). In this study, the Pn of D. superbus with the SA supplement increased by approximately 9.02 and 4.8% under the 0.3 and 0.6% NaCl conditions, respectively, compared with the non-SA-treated plants (Table S2).…”

Salt stress critically affects the physiological processes and morphological structure of plants, resulting in reduced plant growth. Salicylic acid (SA) is an important signal molecule that mitigates the adverse effects of salt stress on plants. Large pink Dianthus superbus L. (Caryophyllaceae) usually exhibit salt-tolerant traits under natural conditions. To further clarify the salt-tolerance level of D. superbus and the regulating mechanism of exogenous SA on the growth of D. superbus under different salt stresses, we conducted a pot experiment to examine the biomass, photosynthetic parameters, stomatal structure, chloroplast ultrastructure, reactive oxygen species (ROS) concentrations, and antioxidant activities of D. superbus young shoots under 0.3, 0.6, and 0.9% NaCl conditions, with and without 0.5 mM SA. D. superbus exhibited reduced growth rate, decreased net photosynthetic rate (Pn), increased relative electric conductivity (REC) and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents, and poorly developed stomata and chloroplasts under 0.6 and 0.9% salt stress. However, exogenously SA effectively improved the growth, photosynthesis, antioxidant enzyme activity, and stoma and chloroplast development of D. superbus. However, when the plants were grown under severe salt stress (0.9% NaCl condition), there was no significant difference in the plant growth and physiological responses between SA-treated and non-SA-treated plants. Therefore, our research suggests that exogenous SA can effectively counteract the adverse effect of moderate salt stress on D. superbus growth and development.

“…The decrease in the activity of catalase (CAT) by salinity is responsible for the excess generation of H 2 O 2 (Yamane et al, 2004). The decrease in CAT activity by salinity is often observed in many kinds of salt-sensitive plants (Corpas et al, 1993;Streb and Feierabend, 1996;Shim et al, 2003). However, we previously showed in a salt-sensitive rice cultivar that CAT activity in the basal region of leaves was increased by salinity, and the activity maintained during the experimental period (Yamane et al, 2009).…”

“…Some studies were conducted with rice, focusing on the response to antioxidant enzymes (Shim et al, 2003;Vaidyanathan et al, 2003) and cellular damage (Yamane et al, 2008). However, few studies were conducted on the regulation of antioxidant enzymes at mRNA level.…”

“…The database search indicated that the REG of ZFP252 contained the auxin- and salicylic acid-responsive cis -element ASF1MOTIFCAMV. The auxin- and salicylic acid-responsive gene has been found to also respond to salt stress (Shim et al 2003; Jain and Khurana 2009). In mZFP+, mPing insertion changes the distance between the REG and the TSS from −694 to −1,124 bp, but mPing insertion provides ASF1MOTIFCAMV as this cis -element is also located in mPing .…”

Utilization of transposable element mPing as a novel genetic tool for modification of the stress response in rice

Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA fragments that have the ability to move from one chromosomal location to another. The insertion of TEs into gene-rich regions often affects changes in the expression of neighboring genes. Miniature Ping (mPing) is an active miniature inverted-repeat TE discovered in the rice genome. It has been found to show exceptionally active transposition in a few japonica rice varieties, including Gimbozu, where mPing insertion rendered adjacent genes stress-inducible. In the Gimbozu population, it is highly possible that several genes with modified expression profiles are segregating due to the de novo mPing insertions. In our study, we utilized a screening system for detecting de novo mPing insertions in the upstream region of target genes and evaluated the effect of mPing on the stress response of the target genes. Screening for 17 targeted genes revealed five genes with the mPing insertion in their promoters. In most cases, the alteration of gene expression was observed under stress conditions, and there was no change in the expression levels of those five genes under normal conditions. These results indicate that the mPing insertion can be used as a genetic tool to modify an expression pattern of a target gene under stress conditions without changing the expression profiles of those under natural conditions.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s11032-013-9885-1) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
