Overexpression of the Lolium perenne L. delta1-pyrroline 5-carboxylate synthase (LpP5CS) gene results in morphological alterations and salinity tolerance in switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.).
In plants, Δ1-pyrroline- 5-carboxylate synthase (P5CS) is the rate-limiting enzyme in proline biosynthesis. In this study, we introduced the LpP5CS (Lolium perenne L.) gene into switchgrass by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. The transgenic lines (TG) were classified into two groups based on t...
