Implications of dealing with airborne substances and reactive oxygen species: What mammalian lungs, animals, and plants have to say (2007)
Journal Article
Filho, D. W., Hermes-Lima, M., Oliveira, E. S., Spinelli de Oliveira, E., Hancock, J. T., Isola, D. A., …Wilhelm Filho, D. (2007). Implications of dealing with airborne substances and reactive oxygen species: What mammalian lungs, animals, and plants have to say. Integrative and Comparative Biology, 47(4), 578-591. https://doi.org/10.1093/icb/icm078

A gas-exchange structure interacts with the environment and is constantly challenged by contaminants that may elicit defense responses, thus compromising its primary function. It is also exposed to high concentrations of O2 that can generate reactive...

Nitric oxide, stomatal closure and abiotic stress (2007)
Journal Article
Neill, S., Barros, R. S., Bright, J., Desikan, R., Hancock, J. T., Harrison, J., …Ribeiro, D. M. (2007). Nitric oxide, stomatal closure and abiotic stress. Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology - Part A: Molecular and Integrative Physiology, 146(4), S257. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cbpa.2007.01.648

Various data indicate that nitric oxide (NO) is an endogenous signal in plants that mediates responses to several stimuli. Experimental evidence in support of such signalling roles for NO has been obtained via the application of NO (usually in the fo... Read More about Nitric oxide, stomatal closure and abiotic stress.

Signaling on the stigma: Potential new roles for ROS and NO in plant cell signaling (2007)
Journal Article
Hiscock, S. J., Bright, J., McInnis, S. M., Desikan, R., & Hancock, J. T. (2007). Signaling on the stigma: Potential new roles for ROS and NO in plant cell signaling. Plant Signaling and Behavior, 2(1), 23-24

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species, particularly NO, are key components of diverse signaling networks in animals and plants. We have recently shown that epidermal cells of stigmas from a range of different angiosperms accumul...
