Molecular cloning, in-silico characterization and functional validation of monodehydroascorbate reductase gene in Eleusine coracana. [PDF]
Ascorbic acid is a ubiquitous water soluble antioxidant that plays a critical role in plant growth and environmental stress tolerance. It acts as a free radical scavenger as well as a source of reducing power for several cellular processes.

The interplay between virus infection and water-related stress is mediated by the plant metabolism of ascorbic acid. [PDF]
Summary Plants are often subjected to environmental variations in the context of infection such that virus‐induced and abiotic stresses co‐occur. One such environmental variation is water stress, which strongly impacts plant fitness. Although there is ample evidence of the beneficial effects of plant viruses under drought, the consequences of infection

New role for thioredoxins in plants: Implication of TRXo1 in protein depersulfidation [PDF]
Persulfidation, a posttranslational modification of cysteines to persulfides, is the best characterized molecular mechanism of H2S signaling. This study is focused on new functions for thioredoxins (TRXs) in plants beyond those of thiol disulfide (S–S ...

Maintaining nitrogen balance under salt stress through enhanced nodule function and antioxidative defense in chickpea [PDF]
Salinity is a major environmental stress that adversely affects plant growth, nodulation and nitrogen (N) metabolism. This study investigated the physiological and biochemical responses of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes under saline conditions ...

Nitric oxide in plants: the roles of ascorbate and hemoglobin. [PDF]
Ascorbic acid and hemoglobins have been linked to nitric oxide metabolism in plants. It has been hypothesized that ascorbic acid directly reduces plant hemoglobin in support of NO scavenging, producing nitrate and monodehydroascorbate.
