Overexpression of monodehydroascorbate reductase from a mangrove plant (AeMDHAR) confers salt tolerance on rice (2012), J. Plant Physiol., 169, 311-318.

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment)	Organism
quantitative reverse-transcription PCR expression analysis, functional recombinant enzyme overexpression driven by a CaMV double 35S promoter in Oryza sativa in three stable transgenic lines, MT22, MT24 and MT25 as single or multiple copy gene, using the Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 transfection method. All transgenic lines show better yield attributes such as a higher tiller number and increased 1000-grain weight compared to non-transgenics. They also show tolerance to salt at germination and seedling stages	Acanthus ebracteatus

General Information

General Information	Comment	Organism
additional information	overexpression of the enzyme in rice plants increases the plant's salt tolerance. The leaf segments from transgenic lines remain green while the leaf segments from the wild-type plants show severe bleaching at 150 mM NaCl. The salinity tolerance of these transgenic rice lines is enhanced at germination and seedling stages	Acanthus ebracteatus
