Abstract excerpt
This study examined the contribution of catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the overall antioxidant response to norflurazon (NF)-induced oxidative stress in leaves, mesocotyls and scutella of maize (Zea mays). Maize catalase null mutants were used to provide insights into the role(s) of these isozymes. A substantial increase in Cat1 and Cat2 transcript levels occurred in NF-treated leaves in all...
