Most environmental stress forms such as drought, salt,low and extreme temperature; have a common denominator.
WATER DEFICT = OSMOTIC STRESS
Since plants can not escape from these stresses they adopted a variety of mechanisms at morphological and molecular level
•Avoidance: deep roots & small leaves•Escape: fast flowering-seed set•Water saving: stomatal closure•Osmotic adjustment: osmolytes-osmoprotectants
Molecular aspects of OSMOTIC STRESS1. Genes, their products & their functions2. Strategies for genetic manipulation of plants

One of the important mechanisms by which plants are damaged during adverse environmental conditions is the excess production
of active oxygen species.
•Superoxide O2.-
•Hydrogen peroxide H2O2
•Lignin formation in cell walls•oxidative burst upon infection
(hypersensistive cell death)•2nd messengers
(PR, phytoalexin gene expression)
O2.- + H2O2 OH.
+ OH- + O2M n+ , M (n+1)
Haber-Weiss reaction (meatal (M) ion dependent)
•Hydroxyl radicals OH. • One of the most reactive species known to chemistry
• mutate DNA, initiate chain reactions oflipid peroxidation, react with proteins
• cause rapid cell damage
![Page 13: GENETIC MANIPULATION OF CROP PLANTS AGAINST …plantbiotech.metu.edu.tr/plantbiotech/BTECH704/stressders.pdf · genetic manipulation of crop plants against environmental stresses](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013015/5b31ab4e7f8b9adf6c8b6c11/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
•Plants posses non-enzymatic and enzymatic protection mechanismsthat efficiently scavenge active oxygen species.
•Antioxidants such as ascorbic acid (vitamin-C) glutathion, α-tocopherols, and carotenoids occur in high concentrations in plants.
•Hydroxyl radical are too reactive to be eleminated enzymically, but theirformation is limited by scavenging of superoxide and hydrogen peroxide.

Membranes exist in two states:• Paracrystaline state: At low temperature
Lipids are tightly packed, little or no motion of acyl chains• Fluid state: At a certain tempearture (characteristic for a given
membrane-TRANSITION TEMPERATURE) acyl chains start rapid motion and memrane enters into a fluid state.
•Very low fludity at paracrystaline state. High fludity at fluid state.
•Membrane proteins are fuctional at given fludity of membs.
•So keeping membranes at certain fluid level is important for proper functioningof mebrane proteins thus the cellular activity and viability.
•Increase unsaturation level of fatty acids increase fludity of membranes at paracrystaline (low temperature) state. Therefore, maintaining high unsaturationlevel at low tempertures would enhance viability of plant cells.

COMPARTMENTATION OF Na+ INTO VACUOLThe detrimental effects of salt on plants are a consequence of both a water deficit resulting in osmotic stress and the effects of excess sodium ions on critical biochemical processes.In salt tolerant plants the compartmentation of Na+ into vacuoles through the operation of a vacoular Na+/H+ antiport, provides an efficient mechanism to avert the deleterious effects of sodium in the cytosol and maintains osmotic balance by using Na+ (and chloride) accumulated in the vacoule to drive water into the cells.
