Currently, food security depends on the increased production of cereals such as wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.), which is an important source of calories and protein for humans …

The evolution of photosynthesis and its associated metabolic pathways has been crucial to
the successful establishment of plants, but has also challenged plant cells in the form of …

Plants are continuously exposed to several stress factors in field, which affect their
production. These environmental adversities generally induce the accumulation of reactive …

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 …

A study was performed to assess if nitrate reductase (NR) participated in brassinosteroid
(BR)-induced cadmium (Cd) stress tolerance primarily by accelerating the ascorbate …

Under conditions of abiotic stress several physiological and biochemical processes in plants
can be modified. The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is toxic at high …

Photosynthesis is an essential metabolic pathway for plants, contributing to growth and
biomass production. Environmental adverse conditions have a negative impact on …

Photosynthesis is a highly robust process allowing for rapid adjustment to changing
environmental conditions. The efficient acclimation depends on balanced redox metabolism …

The role of anthocyanin accumulation in poinsettia leaves exposed to photo-oxidative stress
was evaluated by comparing green (anthocyanin less) and reddish (anthocyanin well …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have dual functions in plant cells as cytotoxic molecules
and emergency signals. The balance between the production and scavenging of these …
