Journal ArticleDOI
A novel aldose/aldehyde reductase protects transgenic plants against lipid peroxidation under chemical and drought stresses.
Attila Oberschall,Maria Deak,Katalin Török,László Sass,Imre Vass,Izabella Kovács,Attila Fehér,Dénes Dudits,Gábor V. Horváth +8 more
TL;DR: A stress-activated alfalfa gene encoding a novel plant NADPH-dependent aldose/aldehyde reductase that also exhibited characteristics of the homologous human enzyme is identified, revealing a new and efficient detoxification pathway in plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plants ectopically expressing the iron-binding protein, ferritin, are tolerant to oxidative damage and pathogens.
Maria Deak,Gábor V. Horváth,Sholpan Davletova,Katalin Török,László Sass,Imre Vass,Balázs Barna,Zoltán Király,Dénes Dudits +8 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that by sequestering intracellular iron involved in generation of the very reactive hydroxyl radicals through a Fenton reaction, ferritin protects plant cells from oxidative damage induced by a wide range of stresses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological restoration for future sustainability in a changing environment
Young D. Choi,Vicky M. Temperton,Edith B. Allen,Albert Grootjans,Melinda Halassy,Richard J. Hobbs,M. Anne Naeth,Katalin Török +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the predictability of restoration trajectories under changing environmental conditions, the application of ecological theories to restoration practice, the importance of interdisciplinary approaches and human inter- ventions in ecosystem recovery, and the social context of ecological restoration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overproduction of a rice aldo-keto reductase increases oxidative and heat stress tolerance by malondialdehyde and methylglyoxal detoxification.
Zoltán Turóczy,Petra Kis,Katalin Török,Mátyás Cserháti,Agnes Lendvai,Dénes Dudits,Gábor V. Horváth +6 more
TL;DR: The positive role of OsAKR1 in abiotic stress-related reactive aldehyde detoxification pathways and its use for improvement of stress tolerance in plants is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immobilization of soil nitrogen as a possible method for the restoration of sandy grassland
Katalin Török,Tibor Szili-Kovács,Melinda Halassy,T. Tóth,Zs. Hayek,Mark W. Paschke,L.J. Wardell +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the applicability of nitrogen immobilization as a means of accelerating the recovery of an endemic open sandy grassland (Festucetum vaginatae danubiale) on old fields in the Great Hungarian Plain was designed.
