Inter-relationships between light and respiration in the control of ascorbic acid synthesis and accumulation in Arabidopsis thaliana leaves

TL;DR: Regardless of limitations on L-galactone-1,4-lactone synthesis by regulation of early steps in the AA synthesis pathway, the regulation of L-GalLDH activity via the interaction of light and respiratory controls is a crucial determinant of the overall ability of leaves to produce and accumulate AA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Up-regulation of the mitochondrial alternative oxidase pathway enhances photosynthetic electron transport under drought conditions

TL;DR: Results show that up-regulation of the respiratory AOX pathway protects the photosynthetic electron transport chain from the harmful effects of excess light.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondria are the main target for oxidative damage in leaves of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).

TL;DR: Results indicate that mitochondria are the main target for oxidative damage to proteins under well-irrigated and drought conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

'Senescence-associated vacuoles' are involved in the degradation of chloroplast proteins in tobacco leaves.

TL;DR: In this paper, small "senescence-associated vacuoles" (SAVs) with intense proteolytic activity accumulate in senescing leaves of soybean and Arabidopsis, the main goal of this work was to determine whether SAVs are involved in the degradation of chloroplastic components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heat shock increases mitochondrial H2O2 production and extends postharvest life of spinach leaves

TL;DR: The effects of moderate heat shock (HS) treatments on the senescence of detached spinach leaves have been studied in this paper, showing that high-temperature treatments did not prevent the loss of water soluble antioxidant concentrations, while the ratio of reduced/oxidised forms of ascorbic acid was higher 3
