Salicylic acid and H2O2 function by independent pathways in the induction of freezing tolerance in potato

TL;DR: The effects of salicylic acid and hydrogen peroxide on freezing tolerance were studied in two potato cultivars that differ in cold sensitivity, Alpha being more tolerant to freezing than Atlantic, and it is concluded that SA does not always lead to H 2 O 2 accumulation even though catalase and ascorbate peroxidase activities are decreased.
Journal ArticleDOI

Redox changes during the cell cycle in the embryonic root meristem of Arabidopsis thaliana

TL;DR: These data demonstrate the presence of a redox cycle within the plant cell cycle and that the redox state of the nuclei is an important factor in cell cycle progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unravelling how plants benefit from ROS and NO reactions, while resisting oxidative stress

TL;DR: Current knowledge and concepts that lay the foundations of a new vision for ROS/RNS functions – particularly through signalling hubs – for the next decade are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systemic Induction of Photosynthesis via Illumination of the Shoot Apex Is Mediated Sequentially by Phytochrome B, Auxin and Hydrogen Peroxide in Tomato

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exposure to red light triggers phyB-mediated auxin synthesis in the apex, leading to H2O2 generation in systemic leaves, allowing plants better adaptation to the changing light environment.
