Protective responses of tolerant and sensitive wheat seedlings to systemic and local zearalenone application - Electron paramagnetic resonance studies.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Mycotoxins are among the environmental stressors whose oxidative action is currently widely studied. The aim of this paper was to investigate the response of seedling leaves to zearalenone (ZEA) applied to the leaves (directly) and to the grains (indirectly) in tolerant and sensitive wheat cultivars. RESULTS: Biochemical analyses of antioxidant activity were performed for chloroplasts and showed a...
