    • Reductions in Maize Root-tip Elongation by Salt and Osmotic Stress do not Correlate with Apoplastic O2•− Levels 

      Bustos, Dolores Angela; Lascano, Hernan Ramiro; Villasuso, Ana Laura; Machado, Estela; Senn, Eugenia; Cordoba, Alicia Beatriz; Taleisnik, Edith (Oxford Academic Press, 2008-10)
      Background and Aims: Experimental evidence in the literature suggests that O2•− produced in the elongation zone of roots and leaves by plasma membrane NADPH oxidase activity is required for growth. This study explores ...
