Melatonin decreases resistance to postharvest green mold on citrus fruit by scavenging defense-related reactive oxygen species

TL;DR: Results indicate that melatonin decreases resistance to green mold on citrus fruit by scavenging defense-related reactive oxygen species, which provides significant insights into melatonin function in fruit resistance and also molecular mechanisms of fruit resistance to postharvest diseases.

NOX enzymes and the biology of reactive oxygen

TL;DR: Professional phagocytes generate high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) using a superoxide-generating NADPH oxidase as part of their armoury of microbicidal mechanisms, leading to the concept that ROS are 'intentionally' generated in these cells with distinctive cellular functions related to innate immunity, signal transduction and modification of the extracellular matrix.

Significance of Inducible Defense-related Proteins in Infected Plants

TL;DR: The evolutionary conservation of similar defense-related proteins in monocots and dicots, but also their divergent occurrence in other conditions, suggest that these proteins serve essential functions in plant life, whether in defense or not.

- 01 Oct 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that a relatively recent (>50 million years ago) genome-wide duplication has resulted in the transition from nine ancestral chromosomes to 17 chromosomes in the Pyreae, which partly support the monophyly of the ancestral paleohexaploidy of eudicots.

Reactive Oxygen Species Signaling in Response to Pathogens

TL;DR: The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), via consumption of oxygen in a so-called oxidative burst, is one of the earliest cellular responses following successful pathogen recognition.
