    Transcriptional profiling of wheat and wheat-rye addition lines to identify candidate genes for aluminum tolerance

    A large-scale expression profiling study was performed to investigate candidate genes associated with the two quantitative trait loci for aluminum (Al) tolerance (Alt1 and Alt2). They have been identified in r...

    Characterization, genetic diversity, phylogenetic relationships, and expression of the aluminum tolerance MATE1 gene in Secale species

    Aluminum (Al) is the main limiting factor for crop production in acidic soils. Efflux of organic acids is one of the mechanisms that determine Al-tolerance, and an Al-activated citrate transporter (multidrug a...

    The ScAACT1 gene at the Q alt5 locus as a candidate for increased aluminum tolerance in rye (Secale cereale L.)

    Soluble aluminum (Al3+) is a major constraint to plant growth in highly acidic soils, which comprise up to 50% of the world’s arable land. The primary mechanism of Al resistance described in plants is the chelati...

    From the rye Alt3 and Alt4 aluminum tolerance loci to orthologous genes in other cereals

    The major limit to plant growth in acid soils is the presence of toxic aluminum (Al) cations, which limit growth by inhibiting root elongation. Aluminum tolerance in rye is controlled by (at least) four indepe...

    Characterization of sequence polymorphisms from microsatellite flanking regions in Vitis spp

    Single nucleotide polymorphisms or SNPs are the most abundant form of genetic variation in the genome of plants and animals. Microsatellites are hypervariable regions of genome, while their flanking regions ar...

    Candidate gene identification of an aluminum-activated organic acid transporter gene at the Alt4 locus for aluminum tolerance in rye (Secale cereale L.)

    Among cereal crops, rye is one of the most tolerant species to aluminum. A candidate gene approach was used to determine the likely molecular identity of an Al tolerance locus (Alt4). Using PCR primers designed f...

    Molecular markers linked to the aluminium tolerance gene Alt1 in rye (Secale cereale L.)

     Rye has one of the most efficient group of genes for aluminium (Al) tolerance among cultivated species of Triticeae. This tolerance is controlled by at least two independent and dominant loci (Alt1 and Alt3) loc...

    Chromosomal location of PCR fragments as a source of DNA markers linked to aluminium tolerance genes in rye

    To identify and locate rye DNA sequences homologous to three wheat c-DNAs (wali1, wali2 and wali5) whose expression is induced by aluminium (Al) stress, we designed three pairs of specific primers. They were used...
