Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are signaling molecules essential for plant responses to
abiotic and biotic stimuli as well as for multiple developmental processes. They are …

Selenium (Se) is yet to be confirmed as essential for plants, but it has proven to be an
essential trace element for humans and other animals. However, it is well documented that …

Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient for humans and animals, but lead to toxicity
when taken in excessive amounts. Plants are the main source of dietary Se, but essentiality …

Vitamin C (l-ascorbic acid) is an excellent free radical scavenger, not only for its capability to
donate reducing equivalents but also for the relative stability of the derived …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated inevitably in the redox reactions of plants,
including respiration and photosynthesis. In earlier studies, ROS were considered as toxic …

We discuss on the relative significance of different functional roles potentially served by
flavonoids in photoprotection, with special emphasis to their ability to scavenge reactive …

This review considers the relationship between the lifespan of an individual plant and the
longevity of its component cells, tissues and organs. It begins by defining the terms …

Crop plants are subjected to a variety of stresses during their lifecycle, including abiotic
stress factors such as salinity and biotic stress factors such as pathogens. Plants have …

Plants growing in their natural habitats are often challenged simultaneously by multiple
stress factors, both abiotic and biotic. Research has so far been limited to responses to …

In plant cells the free radical nitric oxide (NO) interacts both with anti-as well as prooxidants.
This review provides a short survey of the central roles of ascorbate and glutathione—the …
