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.

Reactive oxygen species as signals that modulate plant stress responses and programmed cell death.
TL;DR: Although many components of the ROS signaling network have recently been identified, the challenge remains to understand how ROS‐derived signals are integrated to eventually regulate such biological processes as plant growth, development, stress adaptation and programmed cell death.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interactions between biosynthesis, compartmentation and transport in the control of glutathione homeostasis and signalling
TL;DR: Control of glutathione concentration and redox state is due to a complex interplay between biosynthesis, utilization, degradation, oxidation/reduction, and transport, and all these factors must be considered in order to evaluate the significance of glutATHione as a signalling component during development, abiotic stress, or pathogen attack.

Common Components, Networks, and Pathways of Cross-Tolerance to Stress. The Central Role of “Redox” and Abscisic Acid-Mediated Controls
G. M. Pastori,Christine H. Foyer +1 more
TL;DR: The major focus of this review concerns the basic features of signaling that underpin cross-tolerance and result from the action of common elements, which are likely to occur early in the stress response cascade.

Cadmium Tolerance and Accumulation in Indian Mustard Is Enhanced by Overexpressing γ-Glutamylcysteine Synthetase
Yong Liang Zhu,Elizabeth A. H. Pilon-Smits,Alice S. Tarun,Stefan U. Weber,Lise Jouanin,Norman Terry +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that overexpression of gamma-ECS increases biosynthesis of glutathione and PCs, which in turn enhances Cd tolerance and accumulation, and appears to be a promising strategy for the production of plants with superior heavy metal phytoremediation capacity.
