Characterization of the antioxidant system during the vegetative development of pea plants
Biologia Plantarum, 2010 The antioxidative system was studied during the development of pea plants. The reduced glutathione (GSH) content was higher in shoots than in roots, but a greater redox state of glutathione existed in roots compared with shoots, at least after 7 d of ...

Variation in the impact of stem scar and cuticle on water loss in highbush blueberry fruit argue for the use of water permeance as a selection criterion in breeding [PDF]
, 2017 The role of fruit scar on water loss from fresh harvested, fully blue highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) fruit was studied on three germplasm lines from each of three half-sib families at University of Talca, Chile. The stem scar of half of the
