    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...

    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...
