Journal ArticleDOI
Dual action of the active oxygen species during plant stress responses.
TL;DR: This review discusses the dual action of AOS during plant stress responses, which was first described in pathogenesis but has also recently been demonstrated during several abiotic stress responses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant L‐ascorbic acid: chemistry, function, metabolism, bioavailability and effects of processing
Mark W. Davey,M. Van Montagu,Dirk Inzé,Maite Sanmartín,Angelos K. Kanellis,Nicholas Smirnoff,I. J. J. Benzie,John (Sean) J. Strain,D. Favell,J. Fletcher +9 more
TL;DR: The role of L-AA in metabolism and the latest studies regarding its bio- synthesis, tissue compartmentalisation, turnover and catabolism are focused on, as well as the potential to improve the L- AA content of crops.
Journal ArticleDOI
Control of Arabidopsis flower and seed development by the homeotic gene APETALA2.
TL;DR: It is shown that in addition to its functions during flower development, AP2 activity is also required during seed development, and this suggests that AP2 represents a new class of plant regulatory proteins that may play a general role in the control of Arabidopsis development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transfection and transformation of Agrobacterium tumefaciens.
TL;DR: These experiments provide further evidence that the Ti-plasmid is responsible for the oncogenic properties of A tumefaciens and for its capacity to induce “opine” synthesis in Crown-gall plant cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Engineering herbicide resistance in plants by expression of a detoxifying enzyme.
M. De Block,Johan Botterman,Martine Vandewiele,Jan Dockx,C. Thoen,Veronique Gossele,N.Rao Movva,Charles J. Thompson,M. Van Montagu,Jan Leemans +9 more
TL;DR: Transgenic plants showed complete resistance towards high doses of the commercial formulations of phosphinothricin and bialaphos, presenting a successful approach to obtain herbicide‐resistant plants by detoxification of the herbicide.
