Diverse roles of tocopherols in response to abiotic and biotic stresses and strategies for genetic biofortification in plants

2020-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Tocopherols are a group of lipid-soluble compounds and they are essential for human nutrition. Tocopherols are also well known as powerful antioxidants associated with ascorbate and glutathione, which protect plants from oxygen toxicity. However, an increasing amount of research suggests that tocopherols play roles in stress resistance far beyond their antioxidative activity. This work focuses on the tocopherol bi...
