Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced heat and drought tolerance in transgenic rice seedlings overexpressing OsWRKY11 under the control of HSP101 promoter
TL;DR: The results indicate that the OsWRKY11 gene plays a role in heat and drought stress response and tolerance, and might be useful for improvement of stress tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Salt tolerance of transgenic rice overexpressing yeast mitochondrial Mn-SOD in chloroplasts
TL;DR: It is suggested that increased levels of ascorbate peroxidase and high levels of chloroplastic SOD in the transformant are important factors for salt resistance in rice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulation of glycinebetaine in rice plants that overexpress choline monooxygenase from spinach and evaluation of their tolerance to abiotic stress.
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of endogenously accumulated Glycine Betaine (GB), a quaternary ammonium compound, in rice were evaluated and discussed, and it was concluded that CMO-expressing rice plants were not effective for accumulation of GB and improvement of productivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Exposure of 28-day-old rice seedlings for 6 days to 150 mm NaCl was found to induce drastic decreases in relative water contents, chlorophyll, and proteins in the leaves, which was largely prevened when before the exposure to NaCl the seedlings were treated for 4 days with 15 mm glycinebetaine.
