Biological systems, adapted through millions of years of evolution with various functional
trade-offs, have emerged as a crucial source of inspiration for the design of advanced …

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is produced predominantly in plant cells during photosynthesis
and photorespiration, and to a lesser extent, in respiration processes. It is the most stable of …

Abiotic stress tolerance has been weakened during the domestication of all major staple
crops. Soil salinity is a major environmental constraint that impacts over half of the world …

Reactive oxygen species are thought to play an important role in NaCl stress. Therefore, the
expression patterns of the gene family encoding the H2O2-scavenging enzyme ascorbate …

The relative influence of plant age and environmental stress signals in triggering a shift from
C3 photosynthesis to Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) in the annual halophytic C3 …

Environmental stresses lead to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which
subsequently give rise to hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2). At high concentrations, H 2 O 2 can …

Salinity is one of the most studied abiotic factors affecting soil and plant health in most of the
arid and semiarid ecosystems across the globe. It affects the soil by altering the physical …

Background Zygophyllum is an important medicinal plant, with notable properties such as
resistance to salt, alkali, and drought, as well as tolerance of poor soils and shifting sand …

Photosynthetic gas exchange, dry mass production, water relations and inducibility of
crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) pathway as well as antioxidative protection during the …

Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is an intriguing metabolic strategy to maintain
photosynthesis under conditions of closed stomata. A shift from C 3 photosynthesis to CAM …
