Ascorbate-Glutathione Cycle Genes Families in Euphorbiaceae: Characterization and Evolutionary Analysis [PDF]
Ascorbate peroxidase (APX), Monodehydroascorbate Reductase (MDAR), Dehydroascorbate Reductase (DHAR) and Glutathione Reductase (GR) enzymes participate in the ascorbate-glutathione cycle, which exerts a central role in the antioxidant metabolism in ...

Ascorbate-glutathione cycle in wheat and rice seedlings under anoxia and subsequent reaeration [PDF]
The most important part of the plant antioxidant system is the ascorbate-glutathione cycle (AGC), the activity of which is observed upon exposure to a range of stressors, including lack of O2, and oxidative stress occurring immediately after the ...

Catalase, superoxide dismutase and ascorbate-glutathione cycle enzymes confer drought tolerance of Amaranthus tricolor [PDF]
AbstractThe study was performed to explore physiological, non-enzymatic and enzymatic detoxification pathways of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in tolerance ofAmaranthus tricolorunder drought stress. The tolerant genotype VA13 exhibited lower reduction in growth, photosynthetic pigments, relative water content (RWC) and negligible increment in ...

The ascorbate-glutathione cycle coming of age. [PDF]
Abstract Concepts regarding the operation of the ascorbate–glutathione cycle and the associated water/water cycle in the processing of metabolically generated hydrogen peroxide and other forms of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are well established in the literature.

Ascorbate-glutathione cycle confers salt tolerance in Egyptian lentil cultivars. [PDF]
In order to investigate the salt tolerance mechanism in Egyptian lentils, five cultivars were grown under different salinity levels. The results indicated that Giza 9 is salt-tolerant, while Giza 4 is a salt-sensitive lentil cultivar, as Giza 9 showed the highest germination percentage and relative water content, the lowest decline in root and shoot ...
