Papers

1. ASCORBATE AND GLUTATHIONE: Keeping Active Oxygen Under ControlAnnual Review of Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular Biology · 1998 · 5,752 citations

   To cope with environmental fluctuations and to prevent invasion by pathogens, plant metabolism must be flexible and dynamic. Active oxygen species, whose formation is accelerated under stress conditions, must be rapidly processed if oxidative damage is to be averted. The…

2. Redox Homeostasis and Antioxidant Signaling: A Metabolic Interface between Stress Perception and Physiological ResponsesThe Plant Cell · 2005 · 2,987 citations

   Low molecular weight antioxidants, such as ascorbate, glutathione, and tocopherol, are information-rich redox buffers that interact with numerous cellular components. In addition to crucial roles in defense and as enzyme cofactors, cellular antioxidants influence plant growth and development by modulating…
