Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation The celery APX gene was cloned and named AgAPX1.
- Observation AgAPX1 transcription increased significantly under drought stress.
- Observation The predicted rAgAPX1 mass of 33.16 kDa was verified by SDS-PAGE.
- Observation rAgAPX1 optimum pH was 7.0.
- Observation rAgAPX1 optimum temperature was 55 °C.
- Observation AgAPX1 transgenic Arabidopsis had higher ascorbate content and antioxidant capacity.
- Observation AgAPX1 transgenic Arabidopsis had higher drought resistance.
- Mechanism The authors suggest increased AsA accumulation, antioxidant activity, and stomatal closure may explain drought resistance.
