The study of plant mitochondria started in earnest around 1950 with the first isolations of
mitochondria from animal and plant tissues. The first 35 years were spent establishing the …

Alternative oxidase (AOX) is a non-energy conserving terminal oxidase in the plant
mitochondrial electron transport chain. While respiratory carbon oxidation pathways …

▪ Abstract Plants, some fungi, and protists contain a cyanide-resistant, alternative
mitochondrial respiratory pathway. This pathway branches at the ubiquinone pool and …

The response of the antioxidative systems of leaf cell mitochondria and peroxisomes of the
cultivated tomato Lycopersicon esculentum (Lem) and its wild salt‐tolerant related species …

Plant internal oxygen concentrations can drop well below ambient even when the plant
grows under optimal conditions. Using pea (Pisum sativum) roots, we show how amenable …

Approximately 40% of a plant's dry mass consists of carbon, fixed in photosynthesis. This
process is vital for growth and survival of virtually all plants during the major part of their …

The aim of this study was to explore the role of the mitochondrial alternative oxidase (AOX)
in the protection of photosynthesis during drought in wheat leaves. The relative water …

Effects of brassinosteroids (BRs) on cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) abiotic stresses
resistance to salt, polyethylene glycol (PEG), cold and the potential mechanisms were …

Peroxiredoxins (Prx) have recently moved into the focus of plant and animal research in the
context of development, adaptation, and disease, as they function both in antioxidant …

Aerobic respiration, a process performed by all plants, involves the controlled oxidation of
metabolites containing reduced carbon to produce carbon dioxide and water as the final …
