Abstract
Growth of plants in soil inoculated with plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) producing 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase or expression of the corresponding acdS gene in transgenic lines reduces the decline in shoot length, shoot weight and photosynthetic capacity triggered by salt stress in Camelina sativa. Reducing the levels of ethylene attenuated the salt stress response as inferred from decreases in the expression of genes involved in development, senescence, chlorosis and leaf abscission that are highly induced by salt to levels that may otherwise have a negative effect on plant growth and productivity. Growing plants in soil treated with Pseudomonas migulae 8R6 negatively affected ethylene signaling, auxin and JA biosynthesis and signalling, but had a positive effect on the regulation of genes involved in GA signaling. In plants expressing acdS, the expression of the genes involved in auxin signalling was positively affected, while the expression of genes involved in cytokinin degradation and ethylene biosynthesis were negatively affected. Moreover, fine-tuning of ABA signaling appears to result from the application of ACC deaminase in response to salt treatment. Moderate expression of acdS under the control of the root specific rolD promoter or growing plants in soil treated with P. migulae 8R6 were more effective in reducing the expression of the genes involved in ethylene production and/or signaling than expression of acdS under the more active Cauliflower Mosaic Virus 35S promoter.Funding Information
