Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect The strongest MnSOD antisense line had retarded root growth under control conditions.
- Intervention effect Mitochondrial redox reporter oxidation was significantly higher in MnSOD antisense seedlings.
- Intervention effect Cytosolic redox reporter oxidation showed no substantial change.
- Intervention effect Mitochondrial protein carbonyls showed no widespread increase.
- Intervention effect Mitochondrial respiratory complexes were not inhibited.
- Intervention effect Aconitase and isocitrate dehydrogenase activities were inhibited.
- Intervention effect TCA cycle flux in isolated mitochondria was inhibited.
- Intervention effect Total respiratory CO2 output of seedlings did not decrease.
- Observation Older soil grown plants showed more pronounced redox perturbation and changes in ascorbate and glutathione state.
