TLDR
The results suggest that endogenous SA may function in A. thaliana as a signaling molecule necessary to generate, to sustain or to amplify Cd-induced oxidative stress.

The relationship between metal toxicity and cellular redox imbalance

TL;DR: Analysis of plants expressing targeted modifications of components of the antioxidant system and comparison of closely related plant species with different degrees of toxic metal sensitivity have established a link between the degree of plant tolerance to metals and the level of antioxidants.

Unravelling cadmium toxicity and tolerance in plants: Insight into regulatory mechanisms

TL;DR: This article reviews current knowledge of uptake, transport and accumulation of Cd in plants and gives an overview of C d-detoxification mechanisms, Cd-induced oxidative damage and antioxidant defenses in plants, and presents a picture of the role of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in Cd toxicity.

Heavy-metal-induced reactive oxygen species: phytotoxicity and physicochemical changes in plants.

TL;DR: The biochemiCal processes involved in the over production of ROS as an aftermath to heavy metal exposure are summarized and the ROS scavenging process that is associated with the antioxidant defense machinery is described.

Cadmium Bioavailability, Uptake, Toxicity and Detoxification in Soil-Plant System

TL;DR: This review summarizes the findings of the most recent studies, published from 2000 to 2016, which focus on the biogeochemical behavior of Cd in soil-plant systems and its impact on the ecosystem.

REACTIVE OXYGEN SPECIES: Metabolism, Oxidative Stress, and Signal Transduction

TL;DR: The mechanisms of ROS generation and removal in plants during development and under biotic and abiotic stress conditions are described and the possible functions and mechanisms for ROS sensing and signaling in plants are compared with those in animals and yeast.

Hydrogen Peroxide is Scavenged by Ascorbate-specific Peroxidase in Spinach Chloroplasts

TL;DR: Observations confirm that the electron donor for the scavenging of hydrogen peroxide in chloroplasts is L-ascorbate and that the L-ASCorbate is regenerated from DHA by the system: photosystem I-*ferredoxin-*NADP^>glutathione and a preliminary characterization of the chloroplast peroxidase is given.

Superoxide Dismutases: I. Occurrence in Higher Plants

TL;DR: Nine of the enzyme activities were eliminated with cyanide treatment suggesting that they may be cupro-zinc enzymes, whereas one was cyanide-resistant and may be a manganese enzyme.
