Research Abstract

Transgenic European pear lines with reduced spermidine(spd) synthase(SPDS) expression showed severe effect on phenotypes compared with the wild-type(WT) under salt or cadmium stress. However, repressed phenotype was much alleviated by application of Spd. Application of Spd to WT can confer stress tolerance, while application of SPDS inhibitor to SPDS-overexpressing pear showed reduction of stress tolerance. We also showed the evidence for the importance of Spd in stress tolerance by influencing antioxidant system. Moreover, several genes including dehydrin and peroxidase whose expression levels were significantly different in SPDS-overexpressing line and WT, were successfully isolated by differential display and cDNA microarray.
