Overexpression of WsSGTL1 Gene of Withania somnifera Enhances Salt Tolerance, Heat Tolerance and Cold Acclimation Ability in Transgenic Arabidopsis Plants

TL;DR: Transformation of WsSGTL1 gene in A. thaliana conferred abiotic stress tolerance and the promoter of the gene in W.somnifera was found to have stress responsive elements and the 3D structure showed functional similarity with sterol glycosyltransferases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation of Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal: an important medicinal plant

TL;DR: The leaf segments from two-and-a-half-month-old green house-grown seedlings were more efficient in transformation, as compared to those from the in vitro-grown shoots, and second expanded leaf from the shoot tip gave the highest transient transformation efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Establishment of long-term proliferating shoot cultures of elite Jatropha curcas L. by controlling endophytic bacterial contamination

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a medium containing 0.5-mg-l−1 benzyladenine and 0.1-mg −1 IBA to induce shoot organogenesis in Jatropha curcas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sterol glycosyltransferases-identification of members of gene family and their role in stress in Withania somnifera.

TL;DR: The level of expression increased in heat and cold stress indicating the role of sterol modifications in abiotic stress and 3 members of SGT gene family are identified through RACE (Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends) in addition to sgtl1 reported earlier.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of Arabidopsis sterol glycosyltransferase TTG15/UGT80B1 role during freeze and heat stress

TL;DR: It may be concluded that due to low content of free sterols and sterol glycosides, the physiology of mutant plants was more affected during both, the chilling and heat stress.
