TL;DR: The role of H2O2 as a signaling molecule is shown in the protection of photosynthetic activity in rice from As toxicity through regulation on the activity and the expression of antioxidant enzymes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the importance of melatonin in reducing heat stress-induced severity in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants was evaluated, and it was shown that melatonin not only reduced oxidative stress through lowering TBARS and H2O2 content, augmenting the activity of antioxidative enzymes but also increased the photosynthesis in plant and carbohydrate metabolism that was needed to provide energy and carbon skeleton to the developing plant under stress.

TL;DR: In this article, the interactive effect of ethephon (2-chloroethyl phosphonic acid; an ethylene source) and sulfur (S) in regulating the antioxidant system and ABA content and in maintaining stomatal responses, chloroplast structure, and photosynthetic performance of mustard plants (Brassica juncea L. Czern.) grown under 100 mM NaCl stress.

TL;DR: In this paper, the importance of melatonin in reducing heat stress-induced severity in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants was evaluated, and it was shown that melatonin not only reduced oxidative stress through lowering TBARS and H2O2 content, augmenting the activity of antioxidative enzymes but also increased the photosynthesis in plant and carbohydrate metabolism that was needed to provide energy and carbon skeleton to the developing plant under stress.

TL;DR: In this article , the effect of exogenously-applied ethylene sourced from ethephon (2-chloroethyl phosphonic acid) was studied on photosynthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, and high-temperature stress tolerance in Taipei-309 and Rasi cultivars of rice.
