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 ...

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 ...

Magnesium Hydride Confers Osmotic Tolerance in Mung Bean Seedlings by Promoting Ascorbate–Glutathione Cycle [PDF]
Despite substantial evidence suggesting that hydrogen gas (H2) can enhance osmotic tolerance in plants, the conventional supply method of hydrogen-rich water (HRW) poses challenges for large-scale agricultural applications. Recently, magnesium hydride (MgH2), a hydrogen storage material in industry, has been reported to yield beneficial effects in ...

Modeling the ascorbate-glutathione cycle in chloroplasts under light/dark conditions [PDF]
Light/dark cycles are probably the most important environmental signals that regulate plant development. Light is essential for photosynthesis, but an excess, in combination with the unavoidable presence of atmospheric oxygen inside the chloroplast, leads to excessive reactive oxygen species production. Among the defense mechanisms that activate plants

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 ...

Effect of High-Temperature Stress on Ascorbate–Glutathione Cycle in Maize [PDF]
High-temperature stress induces cellular changes leading to over-production of highly reactive oxygen species (ROS) which damage macromolecules and cell organelles, eventually resulting in cell death. Antioxidative metabolism in plants comprising of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants imparts tolerance by scavenging or detoxification of excess ROS.

Ascorbate-Glutathione Cycle and Ultrastructural Analyses of Two Kenaf Cultivars (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) under Chromium Stress [PDF]
Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) with high tolerance to chromium (Cr) can be used in the phytoremediation of chromium-contaminated soil. However, the mechanisms of chromium accumulation and tolerance in kenaf are still unclear. A hydroponic experiment was taken to screen two kenaf cultivars with Cr tolerance among nine kenaf cultivars via a tolerance ...
