Alterations in Soluble Class III Peroxidases of Maize Shoots by Flooding Stress

open access: yesProteomes, 2014
Due to changing climate, flooding (waterlogged soils and submergence) becomes a major problem in agriculture and crop production. In the present study, the effect of waterlogging was investigated on peroxidases of maize (Zea mays L.) leaves.

Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis ‘Hongyang’) cytosolic ascorbate peroxidases (AcAPX1 and AcAPX2) enhance salinity tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2022
Ascorbate peroxidase (APX) plays a key role in scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) in higher plants. However, there is very little information available on the APXs in kiwifruit (Actinidia), which is an economically and nutritionally important ...

Inactivation Mechanism of Ascorbate Peroxidase at Low Concentrations of Ascorbate; Hydrogen Peroxide Decomposes Compound I of Ascorbate Peroxidase [PDF]

open access: yesPlant and Cell Physiology, 1996
One of the characteristic properties of ascorbate peroxidase (APX), which distinguishes it from guaiacol peroxidase, Cyt c peroxidase and glutathione peroxidase, is the rapid inactivation of the enzyme under conditions where an electron donor is absent. When thylakoid-bound APX (tAPX) in 100 f/M ascorbate was diluted 500-fold with an ascorbate-depleted

Differential involvement of ascorbate and guaiacol peroxidases in soybean drought resistance

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2016
Soybean (Glycine max L.) is a small but growing component of the agricultural economy of South Africa and is predicted to become a major crop in Africa because of its high protein content. Drought induction at flowering or early stages of pod development

Effects of mixed saline and alkaline stress on the morphology and anatomy of Pisum sativum L.: The role of peroxidase and ascorbate oxidase in growth regulation [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2013
The effects of hyperalkaline, thermo-mineral water from Slatina on the morphology and anatomy of pea plants (Pisum sativum L.), were examined after eleven days of treatment with a mixture of tap water and Slatina water in 3:1 (T1) and 1:1 ratios (T2).

Effects of NaCl on the response of Mesembryanthemum crystallinum callus to Botrytis cinerea infection

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2011
Callus of the halophyte Mesembryanthemum crystallinum was used to study the effect of NaCl on the response to Botrytis cinerea infection. The fungus easily colonized the callus surface and the intercellular spaces.

The Antioxidants of Legume Nodule Mitochondria

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
The mitochondria of legume root nodules are critical to sustain the energy-intensive process of nitrogen fixation. They also generate reactive oxygen species at high rates and thus require the protection of antioxidant enzymes and metabolites.

Stromal Ascorbate Peroxidase (OsAPX7) Modulates Drought Stress Tolerance in Rice (Oryza sativa)

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Chloroplast ascorbate peroxidases exert an important role in the maintenance of hydrogen peroxide levels in chloroplasts by using ascorbate as the specific electron donor.

SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC DETERMINATION OF ASCORBIC ACID BY HORSERADISH PEROXIDASE [PDF]

open access: yesThe University Thought - Publication in Natural Sciences, 2020
L-ascorbic acid is one of the essential nutrients and most common food supplements, fortificants, and preservatives. It is commercially available as solutions, drops, tablets, capsules, crystal powder, beverage mixtures, multivitamin formulations, and multi antioxidant formulations. The usual daily dose is from 25 mg to 1.5 g.

Gene knockout study reveals that cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase 2(OsAPX2) plays a critical role in growth and reproduction in rice under drought, salt and cold stresses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Plant ascorbate peroxidases (APXs), enzymes catalyzing the dismutation of H2O2 into H2O and O2, play an important role in reactive oxygen species homeostasis in plants.
