When plants face drought, infections, and other stressors, their cells produce unstable molecules known as reactive oxygen species, including hydrogen peroxide. Snooping on a plant’s production ...

Plants know how to defend themselves against pathogenic microorganisms. In turn, pathogens have sensors to detect such ...

The cells inside a plant use the chemical compound ... In layman’s terms, it detects small shifts in hydrogen peroxide levels, a reactive oxygen species, into measurable differences in ...

Excessive reactive nitrogen species (RNS) and reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as H 2 O 2 (hydrogen peroxide), HO − ... oils of various aromatic plants, has recently garnered attention ...

To specifically study the location-dependent effect of hydrogen peroxide release, they used D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO), which produces this ROS upon addition of D-alanine. 2 The team fused DAAO to ...
