Filamentous fungi constitute a large group of eukaryotic microorganisms that grow by
forming simple tube-like hyphae that are capable of differentiating into more-complex …

Radical-mediated damage to proteins may be initiated by electron leakage, metal-ion-
dependent reactions and autoxidation of lipids and sugars. The consequent protein …

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Botrytis cinerea are closely related necrotrophic plant
pathogenic fungi notable for their wide host ranges and environmental persistence. These …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a major role in pathogen-plant interactions: recognition
of a pathogen by the plant rapidly triggers the oxidative burst, which is necessary for further …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been regarded as inevitable harmful by-products of
aerobic metabolism. Growing evidence, however, suggests that ROS play important …

Phytoremediation technologies based on the combined action of plants and the microbial
communities that they support within the rhizosphere hold promise in the remediation of land …

NADPH oxidases (Nox) have been characterized as higher eukaryotic enzymes used
deliberately to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). The recent discovery of new …

The halotolerant photoautotrophic marine microalga Dunaliella salina is one of the richest
sources of natural carotenoids. Here we investigated the effects of high intensity blue, red …

The halotolerant microalga Dunaliella salina has been widely studied for natural β-carotene
production. This work shows biochemical characterization of three newly isolated Dunaliella …
