Identification of gene expression patterns in mangroves grown under salinity will help to reveal the molecular mechanisms of salt tolerance. Here, 10 cDNAs of genes were isolated from Kandelia candel and identified by representational difference analysis of cDNA (cDNA RDA) under different NaCl concentrations. Of five genes expressed preferentially under salt condition, two were unknown, three were two kinds of low molecular mass heat-shock proteins (sHSPs) and ADP-ribosylation factor, respectively. The expressions of other five genes were repressed under NaCl stress, two encoded cyclophilins, three were tonoplast intrinsic protein, early light-induced protein and 60S ribosomal protein, respectively.
