Abstract l-Ascorbic acid (Asc) is the most abundant water-soluble antioxidant in plants. It
serves as a cofactor for enzymes involved in photosynthesis, hormone biosynthesis, and the …

Ascorbate (ASC) plays a critical role in plant stress response. The antioxidant role of ASC
has been well-studied, but there are still several confusing questions about the function of …

l‐Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is as essential to plants as it is to animals. Ascorbic acid functions
as a major redox buffer and as a cofactor for enzymes involved in regulating photosynthesis …

The life of any living organism can be defined as a hurdle due to different kind of stresses.
As with all living organisms, plants are exposed to various abiotic stresses, such as drought …

Ascorbic acid (AsA) is an essential multifaceted phytonutrient for both the human diet and
plant growth. Optimum levels of AsA accumulation combined with balanced redox …

Production of plants tolerant to high temperature stress is of immense significance in the
light of global warming and climate change. Plant cells respond to high temperature stress …

Contemporaneous presence of both oxidized and reduced forms of electron carriers is
mandatory in efficient flux by plant electron transport cascades. This requirement is …

Plants establish mutualistic associations with beneficial microbes while deploying the
immune system to defend against pathogenic ones. Little is known about the interplay …
