Comparative analysis of responses to field salinity stress in contrasting soybean accessions highlights NaCl exclusion in leaves as a key mechanism for salinity stress tolerance.
Akanbi, Musa; Egbichi, Ifeanyi; Ludidi, Ndiko (JOURNAL OF OASIS AGRICULTURE AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, 2021)Salinity is one of the main limitations to legume productivity in many regions of the world and it is estimated that 50% of all arable land will become affected by salinity by 2050. The impact of field salinity on soybean ... -
Inhibition of NOS- like activity in maize alters the expression of genes involved in H2O2 scavenging and glycine betaine biosynthesis
Phillips, Kyle; Majola, Anelisa; Gokul, Arun; Keyster, Marshall; Ludidi, Ndiko; Egbichi, Ifeanyi (Nature Publishing Group, 2018)Nitric oxide synthase-like activity contributes to the production of nitric oxide in plants, which controls plant responses to stress. This study investigates if changes in ascorbate peroxidase enzymatic activity and ...
