Mitochondria not only are a source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) but also are sites of
oxidative damage. In plants, mitochondria must normally operate when there are high levels …

Microscopy and sample preparation techniques were sufficiently advanced by the mid-
nineteenth century to enable pioneering cell biologists to make the first descriptions of …

The plant response to attempted infection by microbial pathogens is often accompanied by
rapid cell death in and around the initial infection site, a reaction known as the …

This book include coverage of: mitochondrial dynamics; mitochondrial genome instability;
expression of the plant mitochondrial genome; import of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial …

Recent studies have suggested that ultraviolet-C (UV-C) overexposure induces
programmed cell death (PCD) in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh, and this process includes …

Programmed cell death (PCD) is an integral cellular program by which targeted cells
culminate to demise under certain developmental and pathological conditions. It is essential …

We investigated the impact of steady-state cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level on
subsequent susceptibility to cell death induction by signaling molecules or respiratory …

Mitochondria provide most of the ATP used by the many energy-requiring processes of the
cell. In addition, mitochondria are responsible for some key reactions in biosynthetic …

Programmed cell death (PCD) is a process aimed at the removal of redundant, misplaced, or
damaged cells and it is essential to the development and maintenance of multicellular …

Background and Aims Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in triggering cell death.
To visualize mitochondrial behaviour under ROS stress, transgenic arabidopsis plants …
