Effects of salinity on the DNA methylation pattern in barley shoots
Abstract
Salinity is a crucial factor which inhibits crop production worldwide. Recent pieces of evidence reveal that epigenetic mechanisms modulate the gene expression in plants undergoing environmental stresses. Obviously, when the epigenetic regulation of plant growth and response to these stresses are truly understood, a novel heritable variation could be developed for crop improvement. The present study attempted to evaluate the DNA methylation alteration made by salt stress in two barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars differing in salt tolerance, namely salt-tolerant Sahara3771 and salt-sensitive Clipper. Coupled Restriction Enzyme Digestion-Random Amplification (CRED-RA) was used to detect changes in the methyl... Read More read more link button
