Zinc alleviates salt stress and increases antioxidant enzyme activity in the leaves of pistachio (Pistacia vera L. 'Badami') seedlings.
The mechanism(s) by which Zn alleviates NaCl stress was investigated in Pistacia vera L. 'Badami'. Pistachio seedlings were treated with 0, 800, 1600, 2400, and 3200 mg of NaCl kg-1 of soil, along…

Zinc deficiency enhanced NAD(P)H-dependent superoxider radical production in plasma membrane vesicles isolated from roots of bean plants
The production of superoxide radical (O 2 .- ) was studied in plasma membrane vesicles isolated by aqueous polymer two-phase partitioning from roots of zinc-sufficient and zinc-deficient bean…
Hydroxyl free radical production in iron-cysteine solutions and protection by zinc
Iron‐catalysed oxygen radical formation and its possible contribution to drought damage in nine native grasses and three cereals
TLDR
Results indicate that damage arising in the early phases of drought appears to be initiated within the chloroplast and to be largely confined to the photosynthetic tissue, despite quantitatively larger, more rapid, losses in water content.

TLDR
During normally-encountered degrees of water deficit the capacity of the antioxidant systems and their ability to respond to increased active oxygen generation may be sufficient to prevent overt expression of damage.
Oxygen Stress and Superoxide Dismutases
The accumulation of dioxygen in Earth's atmosphere allowed for the evolution of aerobic organisms that use O2 as the terminal electron acceptor, thus providing a higher yield of energy compared with…
Overexpression of Copper/Zinc Superoxide Dismutase in the Cytosol of Transgenic Tobacco Confers Partial Resistance to Ozone-Induced Foliar Necrosis
TLDR
The hypothesis that plants that constitutively overexpress cytosolic SOD are more tolerant of ozone is tested and may demonstrate the importance of Cu/Zn-SOD in the cytosol as a protector of the integrity of the plasma membrane and possibly other cellular constituents.

The nature and localization of superoxide dismutase in fronds of Lemna gibba L. and the effect of copper and zinc deficiency on its activity
TLDR
The SOD activity in Zn-deficient plants could be partly restored to the level of Zn/Zn-sufficient fronds by adding Zn2+ to the enzyme assay solution.
Micronutrient deficiency changes activities of superoxide dismutase and ascorbate peroxidase in tobacco plants
Abstract The effects of copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), and manganese (Mn) deficiencies on the activities of Superoxide dismutase (SOD) and ascorbate peroxidase (APx) were investigated in seedlings of…
