Alternative oxidase (AOX) is a non-energy conserving terminal oxidase in the plant
mitochondrial electron transport chain. While respiratory carbon oxidation pathways …

Background Oxidation-reduction and acid–base reactions are essential for the maintenance
of all living organisms. However, redox potential (Eh) has received little attention in …

Drought, the major limiting factor for plant growth and crop productivity, affecting several
physiological and biochemical processes, is expected to increase in duration, intensity, and …

The bioindustrial production of fuels, chemicals, and therapeutics typically relies upon
carbohydrate inputs derived from agricultural plants, resulting in the entanglement of food …

Salicylic acid (SA), an essential plant hormone, has received much attention due to its role in
modulating the adverse effects of biotic and abiotic stresses, acting as an antioxidant and …

A rising human population and changing patterns of land use mean that world food
production rates will need to be increased by at least 50% by 2050, a massive rise in …

Suppression of the chlorophyll a (Chl a) Mg‐dechelatase gene, SGR/NYE1, blocks the
degradation of Chl a, resulting in a 'stay‐green'trait. In this study, we investigated the effect of …

Different redox-active compounds, such as ascorbate, glutathione, NAD (P) H and proteins
from the thioredoxin superfamily, contribute to the general redox homeostasis in the plant …

The mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) terminates at cytochrome (cyt) oxidase or
alternative oxidase (AOX). In Nicotiana tabacum leaves, mitochondrial respiration in the light …

Plants subjected to abiotic stresses such as extreme high and low temperatures, drought or
salinity, often exhibit decreased vegetative growth and reduced reproductive capabilities …
