Glutathione in plants: biosynthesis and physiological role in environmental stress tolerance
TL;DR: In this review, the recent progress in GSH biosynthesis, metabolism and its role in abiotic stress tolerance is discussed.

Friend or foe? Reactive oxygen species production, scavenging and signaling in plant response to environmental stresses.
TL;DR: Over the past two decades it has been proven that ROS together with non‐photochemical quenching (NPQ), hormones, Ca2+ waves, and electrical signals are the main players in SAA and SAR, two physiological processes essential for plant survival and productivity in unfavorable conditions.

High Salinity Induces Different Oxidative Stress and Antioxidant Responses in Maize Seedlings Organs
TL;DR: It is suggested that Na+ is retained and detoxified mainly in roots, and less stress impact is observed in mature and younger leaves, allowing leaves to activate their defense mechanisms for better protection against salt stress.

Comparative response of maize and rice genotypes to heat stress: status of oxidative stress and antioxidants
TL;DR: The findings suggested that maize genotypes were able to retain their growth under high-temperature conditions partly due to their superior ability to cope up with oxidative damage by heat stress compared to rice genotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lateral gene transfer and parallel evolution in the history of glutathione biosynthesis genes
TL;DR: The evolutionary history of the glutathione biosynthesis genes is more complex than anticipated and suggests that the two genes in the pathway were acquired independently, including the gene for γ-glutamylcysteine ligase.

Hydroxymethyl-Phytochelatins [([gamma]-Glutamylcysteine)n-Serine] Are Metal-Induced Peptides of the Poaceae
TL;DR: The hm-PCs probably play a significant role in heavy metal detoxication in rice and are assumed to be formed from hydroxymethyl-glutathione ([gamma]-Glu-Cys-Ser), while PCs and [gamma]EC peptides without C-terminal Ser or Gly are found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glutathione and Homoglutathione Synthesis in Legume Root Nodules
TL;DR: Isolation of full-length cDNA sequences coding for gamma-glutamylcysteinyl synthetase from legume nodules revealed that they are highly homologous to those from other higher plants.
