In this study, three genes encoding V-H^+-ATPase subunits B(Sc VHA-B, Gen Bank: JF826506), C(Sc VHA-C, Gen Bank: JF826507) and H(Sc VHA-H, Gen Bank: JF826508) were isolated from the halophyte Suaeda corniculata. The transcript levels of Sc VHA-B, Sc VHA-C and Sc VHA-H were increased by salt, drought and saline-alkali treatments. V-H^+-ATPase activity was also examined under salt, drought and saline-alkali stresses. The results showed that V-H^+-ATPase activity was correlated with salt, drought and saline-alkali stress. Furthermore, V-H^+-ATPase subunits B, C and H(Sc VHA-B, Sc VHA-C and Sc VHA-H) from S. corniculata were introduced separately into the alfalfa genome. The transgenic alfalfa was verified by Southern and Northern blot analysis. During salt and saline-alkali stresses, transgenic lines carrying the B, C and H subunits had higher germination rates than the wild type(WT). More free proline, higher superoxide dismutase(SOD) activity and lower malondialdehyde(MDA) levels were detected in the transgenic plants under salt and saline-alkali treatments. Moreover, the Sc VHA-B transgenic lines showed greater tolerance to salt and saline-alkali stresses than the WT. These results suggest that overexpression of Sc VHA-B, Sc VHA-C and Sc VHA-H improves tolerance to salt and saline-alkali stresses in transgenic alfalfa.展开更多

In the title compound, the tetrahedral and octahedral zinc atoms are connected by μ3-OH groups to form zinc hydroxide inorganic layers extending parallel to the bc-plane. The adjacent layers are pillared by the connection of Zn2 atoms with ndc2-ligands to construct a three-dimensional(3D) structure; meanwhile, the interactions of five hydrogen bonds make the 3D network structure more stable.
