Phospholipase D family and its expression in response to abiotic stress in maize
Phospholipase D hydrolyzes phospholipids into phophatidic acid and choline, and plays important roles in growth, development, and stress response. Genome-wide identification for the PLD gene family has been ma...

Cloning and characterization of vacuolar H+-pyrophosphatase gene (AnVP1) from Ammopiptanthus nanus and its heterologous expression enhances osmotic tolerance in yeast and Arabidopsis thaliana
Vacuolar H+-pyrophosphatase (H+-PPase) is one of the proton pumps involved in the response of plants to osmotic stress. In the present study, the vacuolar H+-PPase gene (AnVP1) was cloned from an epibiotic super-...

A betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase gene from Ammopiptanthus nanus enhances tolerance of Arabidopsis to high salt and drought stresses
Glycine betaine functions as an osmotic protectant in response of plant to abiotic stresses. In higher plants, the betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH) catalyzes the key step of glycine betaine biosynthesis. ...
