Abstract excerpt
A genetic approach is described to isolate mutants more tolerant to oxidative stress. A collection of T-DNA activation tag Arabidopsis thaliana mutant lines was screened for survivors under conditions that trigger H2O2-induced cell death. Oxidative stress was induced by applying the catalase (CAT) inhibitor aminotriazole (AT) in the growth media, which results in decrease in CAT enzyme activity, H2O2...
