Inhibition of catalase activity by oxidative stress and its relationship to salicylic acid accumulation in plants
- I. Shim, Yukie Momose, A. Yamamoto, D. Kim, K. Usui
- Biology
- Plant Growth Regulation
- 29 July 2003
The decrease in catalase activity and its relationship to change in salicylic acid content were investigated in rice, wheat, and cucumber seedlings exposed to oxidative stresses. A decrease in… Expand
