Ascorbate is an indispensable redox buffer essential for plant growth and stress acclimation.
Its oxidized form, dehydroascorbate (DHA), undergoes rapid degradation unless it is …

Ascorbate (vitamin C) is one of the most abundant primary metabolites in plants. Its complex
chemistry enables it to function as an antioxidant, as a free radical scavenger, and as a …
