The physiological and biochemical mechanisms on boron (B)-induced alleviation of aluminum (B)-toxicity in plants have been examined in some details, but our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying these processes is very limited. In this study, we first used the cDNA-AFLP to investigate the gene expression patterns in  Citrus grandis  roots responsive to B and Al interactions, and isolated 100 differentially expressed genes. Results showed that genes related to detoxification of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and aldehydes (i.e.,  glutathione S-transferase zeta class-like isoform X1 ,  thioredoxin M-type 4 , and  2-alkenal reductase (NADP + -dependent)-like ), metabolism (i.e.,  carboxylesterases and lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase-like 4-like ,  nicotianamine aminotransferase A-like isoform X3 ,  thiosulfate sulfurtransferase 18-like isoform X1 , and  FNR ,  root isozyme 2 ), cell transport (i.e.,  non-specific lipid-transfer protein-like protein At2g13820-like  and  major facilitator superfamily protein ), Ca signal and hormone (i.e.,  calcium-binding protein CML19-like  and  IAA-amino acid hydrolase ILR1-like 4-like ), gene regulation (i.e.,  Gag-pol polyprotein ) and cell wall modification (i.e.,  glycosyl hydrolase family 10 protein ) might play a role in B-induced alleviation of Al-toxicity. Our results are useful not only for our understanding of molecular processes associated with B-induced alleviation of Al-toxicity, but also for obtaining key molecular genes to enhance Al-tolerance of plants in the future.
