Programmed cell death (PCD) plays crucial roles in plant development and defence
response. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced during normal plant growth, and …

Hypersensitivity is a natural defense for plants in response to a variety of pathogens such as
viruses, bacteria, fungi and is characterized by a programmed cell death (PCD) …

Key message After cryopreservation, the occurrence of apoptosis-like programmed cell
death events induced by the accumulation of ROS reduces pollen viability …

The programmed cell death (PCD) occurs when the targeted cells have fulfilled their task or
under conditions as oxidative stress generated by ROS species. Thus, plants have to deal …

Plant defense against melon necrotic spot virus (MNSV) is triggered by the viral auxiliary
replicase p29 that is targeted to mitochondrial membranes causing morphological …

Background Fistular leaves frequently appear in Allium species, and previous
developmental studies have proposed that the process of fistular leaf formation involves …

Plant disease resistance proteins (R‐proteins) detect specific pathogen‐derived molecules,
triggering a defence response often including a rapid localized cell death at the point of …

In cut flowers, xylem occlusion or blockage by bacteria negatively affects water balance and
postharvest quality. Many studies have used culture-based methods to examine bacterial …

Moisture content is one of the important factors affected the cryopreservation of seeds, but it
is not completely clear how moisture content affects the viability of seeds after …

Key message After cryopreservation, the Ca 2+ content increased, which affected the
intracellular ROS content, then participated in the occurrence of programmed cell death in …
