description | The mangrove plant <i>Acanthus ilicifolius</i> and its relative, <i>Acanthus mollis</i>, have been previously proved to possess diverse pharmacological effects. Therefore, evaluating the differentially expressed proteins of these species under tidal flooding stress is essential to fully exploit and benefit from their medicinal values. The roots of <i>A. ilicifolius</i> and <i>A. mollis</i> were exposed to 6 h of flooding stress per day for 10 days. The dry weight, hydrogen peroxide (H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>) content, anatomical characteristics, carbon and energy levels, and two-dimensional electrophoresis coupled with MALDI-TOF/TOF MS technology were used to reveal the divergent flooding resistant strategies. <i>A. ilicifolius</i> performed better under tidal flooding stress, which was reflected in the integrity of the morphological structure, more efficient use of carbon and energy, and a higher percentage of up-regulated proteins associated with carbon and energy metabolism. <i>A. mollis</i> could not survive in flooding conditions for a long time, as revealed by disrupting cell structures of the roots, less efficient use of carbon and energy, and a higher percentage of down-regulated proteins associated with carbon and energy metabolism. Energy provision and flux balance played a role in the flooding tolerance of <i>A. ilicifolius</i> and <i>A. mollis</i>. |
