Effects of water stress on antioxidant enzymes of leaves and nodules of transgenic alfalfa overexpressing superoxide dismutases

Minchin, Frank R.; Webb, K. Judith; Ramos, Javier; Rubio, Maria C.; Gonzalez, Esther M.; Becana, Manuel; Arrese-Igor, Cesar (2002-07-11)

The antioxidant composition and relative water stress tolerance of nodulated alfalfa plants (Medicago sativa L. × Sinorhizobium meliloti 102F78) of the elite genotype N4 and three derived transgenic lines have been studied ...
Expression studies of superoxide dismutases in nodules and leaves of transgenic alfalfa reveal abundance of iron-containing isozymes, post-translational regulation and compensation of isoenzyme activities

Arrese-Igor, Cesar; Ramos, J.; Minchin, Frank R.; Gonzalez, Esther M.; Becana, Manuel; Rubio, M. C.; Webb, K. Judith (2001)

The composition of antioxidant enzymes, especially superoxide dismutase (SOD), was studied in one nontransgenic and three transgenic lines of nodulated alfalfa plants. Transgenic lines overproduced MnSOD in the mitochondria ...
Oxygen diffusion, production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, and antioxidants in legume nodules

James, E. K.; Becana, Manuel; Minchin, Frank R. (Springer, P. O. Box 17, 3300 AA Dordrecht, Netherlands, 2008)

This review follows the terminology of Minchin (1997) for determinate and lupinoid nodules and that of Vasse et al.(1990) and indeterminate nodules. Thus in 'typical' determinate nodules such as those of the soybean, as ...
