The biomass crop Miscanthus x giganteus has a high chilling tolerance for a C4 plant, allowing for a longer productive growing season in temperate climates. The understanding of the mechanisms that underlie chilling...
In moss-dominated regions of the Western Antarctic Peninsula, dramatic climate features have profoundly impacted moss biology and terrestrial ecology. In a study focused on the effects of six-years of passive warming on...
Pepper (Capsicum annuum) contains high levels of antioxidants, such as vitamins A and C and flavonoids. However, information on the role of these beneficial compounds in the physiology of pepper fruit remains scarce...
Vishwakarma et al. treat wild-type and aox1a knock-out mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana with antimycin A and find that restriction of the cytochrome c oxidase (COX) pathway in the background of an impaired AOX pathway...
Sandalio and Romero-Puertas review the metabolism of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS) in peroxisomes and their contribution to the regulation of plant development and acclimation to stress conditions.
de Pinto et al. provide an overview of the redox pathways that contribute to how plants cope with heat stress, focussing on the roles of reactive oxygen species (ROS), redox metabolites and enzymes in the signalling...
