UV-B exposure, ROS, and stress: inseparable companions or loosely linked associates?

TLDR
It is hypothesized that low UV-B doses cause 'eustress' (good stress) and that stimuli-specific signaling pathways pre-dispose plants to a state of low alert that includes activation of antioxidant defenses.

ROS-mediated abiotic stress-induced programmed cell death in plants.

TL;DR: The aim of the present review is to summarize the recent advances in research on ROS-induced PCD related to abiotic stress and the role of the organelles in the process.

Role of nanomaterials in plants under challenging environments.

TL;DR: This review systematically summarizes the role of NMs in plants under abiotic stresses such as drought, salt, temperature, metal, UV-B radiation and flooding and suitable strategies adopted by plants under challenging environments are also being presented.

Light signaling and plant responses to blue and UV radiations—Perspectives for applications in horticulture

TL;DR: An overview of UV- and blue-radiations signaling pathways in some key physiological processes is presented and effects of plant exposure to these wavelengths on phenotype as well as on contents in useful metabolites and resistance to bio aggressors are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mass spectrometry-based plant metabolomics: Metabolite responses to abiotic stress.

TL;DR: Recent applications of metabolomics are described and its increasing application to study plant responses to environmental (stress-) factors, including drought, salt, low oxygen caused by waterlogging or flooding of the soil, temperature, light and oxidative stress are described.

Reactive oxygen gene network of plants

TL;DR: In Arabidopsis, a network of at least 152 genes is involved in managing the level of ROS, and this network is highly dynamic and redundant, and encodes ROS-scavenging and ROS-producing proteins.

Responses of plants to environmental stresses

J. Levitt
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the responses of plants to environmental stresses and found that plants respond to environmental stress in response to various types of stressors, such as drought and flooding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Malondialdehyde and thiobarbituric acid-reactivity as diagnostic indices of lipid peroxidation and peroxidative tissue injury.

TL;DR: The conclusion is reached that MDA determination and the TBA test can offer, at best, a narrow and somewhat empirical window on the complex process of lipid peroxidation.
