Boreal trees can grow on saline sites – implications for reclamation success on saline soils
Download2015-03-04
Soils from oil sands mining can be affected by salts leached from tailings or overburden materials – resulting in saline soil conditions. As a result, re-establishment of forests on saline sites is an important goal on reclaimed oil sands mines. Forest vegetation is typically thought to be...

Growth of aspen and white spruce on naturally saline sites in northern Alberta: implications for development of boreal forest vegetation on reclaimed saline soils.
Download2012
Lilles, E.B., Purdy, B.G., Chang, S.X., Macdonald, S.E.
We examined height and basal area growth over time for trembling aspen and white spruce in plots along a salinity gradient at six naturally saline sites in northern Alberta, as a benchmark for forest productivity on reclaimed saline sites. We measured root distributions and analyzed foliage for...

Transcriptional profiling of pea ABR17 mediated changes in gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana
Download2008
Srivastava, S., Deyholos, M.K., Kav, N.N.V., Krishnaswamy, S.S., Mohammadi, M., Rahman, M.
Background: Pathogenesis-related proteins belonging to group 10 (PR10) are elevated in response to biotic and abiotic stresses in plants. Previously, we have shown a drastic salinityinduced increase in the levels of ABR17, a member of the PR10 family, in pea. Furthermore, we have also...
