| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Lines of the Oryza genus - including the 94 wild and 41 cultivated lines - vary widely in their tolerance for cadmium (Cd). Several lines of O. barthii and O. latifolia show relatively high Cd tolerance. Expression profiles suggest that enhancing various detoxification systems in O. barthii lines may enable growth under Cd stress. Furthermore, transcripts encoding two types of cell wall proteins are expressed specifically in the Cd tolerant line of O. latifolia, suggesting that the first cell wall barrier may play a role in Cd tolerance.
