Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidative enzymes and isozymes analysis of taro genotypes and their implications in Phytophthora blight disease resistance.
TL;DR: Induction and/or increased activity of particular isoform of SOD and GPX against infection of Phytophthora colocasiae in the resistant genotypes studied led to the apparent conclusion of linkage of isozyme expression with blight resistance in taro.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of orange-fleshed sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) genotypes for salt tolerance through shoot apex culture under in vitro NaCl mediated salinity stress conditions
TL;DR: The results indicate that oxidative stress may play an important role in salt stressed sweet potato plants and that the greater protection of tolerant plants from salt induced oxidative damage results, at least in part, through the increase in the activity of antioxidant enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactive oxygen species scavenging mechanisms associated with polyethylene glycol mediated osmotic stress tolerance in Chinese potato
Manas Ranjan Sahoo,Tongbram Roshni Devi,Madhumita Dasgupta,Potshangbam Nongdam,Narendra Prakash +4 more
TL;DR: Sreedhara and Subala showed more tolerance to osmotic stress with better ROS scavenging machineries which would be the lines of interest for augmenting future breeding strategies in this climate resilient minor tuber crop.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in Phenolics, Polyphenol Oxidase and its Isoenzyme Patterns in Relation to Resistance in Taro against Phytophthora colocasiae
TL;DR: The appearance of high intensity bands and/or reduction in the intensity of particular isoform(s) in the zymograms of all the three resistant taro genotypes studied, led to the apparent conclusion of linking PPO isoenzyme expression with blight resistance in taro.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptional Profiling of Rice Leaves Undergoing a Hypersensitive Response Like Reaction Induced by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae Cellulase
TL;DR: Microarray analysis was conducted using RNA isolated 12 h following ClsA treatment of leaves finding a number of defense and stress-response functions are upregulated while anumber of functions involved in metabolism and transport are downregulated following induction of HR.
