Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Ascorbate and glutathione contents in olive plants under salt stress decreased by 20% to 39%.
- Intervention effect H2O2 content in olive plants under salt stress increased threefold.
- Intervention effect Salt stress significantly increased activity and protein contents of catalase, superoxide dismutase and glutathione reductase in olive plants.
- Intervention effect Salt stress increased glucose-6-phosphate content almost eightfold in olive leaves.
- Intervention effect NAD(P)H content in olive plants under 200 mM NaCl did not change significantly.
- Intervention effect Under salt stress, activity and protein contents of G6PDH, ICDH and malic enzyme rose 30-50%.
- Intervention effect Under salt stress, ferrodoxin-NADP reductase (FNR) activity and protein content rose 30-50%.
- Intervention effect Under 200 mM NaCl, G6PDH protein generally increased in epidermis, palisade and spongy mesophyll cells of olive leaves.
- Mechanism Salinity causes reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated oxidative stress in olive plants.
