Engineering Stress Tolerance in Maize [PDF]
Outlook on Agriculture, 1998 A wide range of environmental stresses (such as chilling, ozone, high light, drought, and heat) can damage crop plants, with consequent high annual yield losses. A common factor in all these unrelated adverse conditions, called oxidative stress, is the enhanced production of active oxygen species (AOS) within several subcellular compartments of the ...
