Alterations in the glutathione antioxidant system and lipid peroxidation in Avicennia marina were studied under laboratory and field conditions. The activity of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) was found to respond to Zn exposure, and a significant positive relationship between leaf Zn concentration and
Haematological, biochemical and pathological effects in rats produced by the salt-tolerant plant Avicennia marina given at oral doses of 1 or 4 g kg(-1) for three consecutive days or 0.5 g kg(-1) day(-1) for 28 consecutive days are reported. No overt behavioral changes, moribundity or mortality were
Metallothioneins (MTs) are a family of low-molecular-weight cysteine-rich proteins and are thought to play possible roles in metal metabolism or detoxification. To evaluate the roles of metallothioneins in metal homeostasis or tolerance in Avicennia marina, a real-time quantitative PCR protocol was
Avicennia marina (Forsk.) Vierh is a widespread mangrove species along the southeast coasts of China. Recently, the outbreak of herbivorous insect, Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton, a leaf miner, have impacted on the growth of A. marina. Little is reported about the responses of A. marina to leaf
Metallothioneins (MTs) are low molecular weight, cysteine-rich, metal-binding proteins that are important for essential metal homeostasis, protection against oxidative stress, and buffering against toxic heavy metals. In this work the gene encoding an MT type 2 from Avicennia marina (Forssk.) Vierh.
Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease are two conditions that have many features in common and are referred as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Patients with IBD are predisposed to colorectal cancer. This investigation evaluates the effect of marine mangrove Avicennia marina against acetic
Effects of multiple pollutants including heavy metal on oxidative stress indices were measured in leaves and roots of Avicennia alba Blume. collected from three coastal locations in Kerala-Cochin, Kollam and Chetua. We observed significant activities in lipid peroxidation, root oxidizability,
Mangrove ecosystems are vulnerable to environmental threats. In order to elucidate the effect of phosphorus (P) on cadmium (Cd) tolerance and physiological responses in mangroves under Cd stress, a mangrove specie with salt exclusion Kandelia obovata and a specie with salt secretion Avicennia marina
Plant growth and productivity are adversely affected by various abiotic stress factors. In our previous study, we used Avicennia marina, a halophytic mangrove, as a model plant system for isolating genes functioning in salt stress tolerance. A large scale random EST sequencing from a salt stressed
