As fixed organisms, plants are especially affected by changes in their environment and have
consequently evolved extensive mechanisms for acclimation and adaptation. Initially …

Abstract Reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions, in which electrons move from a donor to an
acceptor, are the functional heart of photosynthesis. It is not surprising therefore that reactive …

As sessile oxygenic organisms with a plastic developmental programme, plants are uniquely
positioned to exploit reactive oxygen species (ROS) as powerful signals. Plants harbor …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS)–the byproducts of aerobic metabolism–influence numerous
aspects of the plant life cycle and environmental response mechanisms. In plants, ROS act …

Abiotic stresses such as drought, cold, salt and heat cause reduction of plant growth and
loss of crop yield worldwide. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) including hydrogen peroxide …

It is well established that salicylic acid (SA) plays a critical role in the transcriptional
reprograming that occurs during the plant defense response against biotic and abiotic …

Abiotic stress poses major problems to agriculture and increasing efforts are being made to
understand plant stress response and tolerance mechanisms and to develop new tools that …

Abstract Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is an important signaling molecule in plant
developmental processes and stress responses. However, whether H2O2-mediated …

Thioredoxins are ubiquitous enzymes catalyzing reversible disulfide-bond formation to
regulate structure and function of many proteins in diverse organisms. In recent years …

Reactive electrophilic species are ubiquitous in plant cells, where they contribute to specific
redox-regulated signaling events. Redox signaling is known to modulate gene expression …
