Hydrogen gas and its role in cell signaling (2017)
Journal Article

Hydrogen gas (H2) was once thought to be inert in biological systems but it has now become apparent that exposure of a wide range of organisms, including animals and plants, to H2 or hydrogen-rich water (HRW) has beneficial effects. It is involved in... Read More about Hydrogen gas and its role in cell signaling.

Identification and functional annotation of genes differentially expressed in the reproductive tissues of the olive tree (Olea europaea L.) through the generation of subtractive libraries (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 Zafra, Carmona, Traverso, Hancock, Goldman, Claros, Hiscock and Alche. The olive tree is a crop of high socio-economical importance in the Mediterranean area. Sexual reproduction in this plant is an essential process, which determines the yiel...

Residual ground-water levels of the neonicotinoid thiacloprid perturb chemosensing of Caenorhabditis elegans (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017, The Author(s). This study investigated the neurological effects of residual ground-water levels of thiaclopridon the non-target organism Caenorhabditis elegans. Nematodes treated with thiacloprid showed a dose-dependent and significantly incr...

S-nitrosoglutathione spraying improves stomatal conductance, Rubisco activity and antioxidant defense in both leaves and roots of sugarcane plants under water deficit (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 Scandinavian Plant Physiology Society Water deficit is a major environmental constraint on crop productivity and performance and nitric oxide (NO) is an important signaling molecule associated with many biochemical and physiological processes... Read More about S-nitrosoglutathione spraying improves stomatal conductance, Rubisco activity and antioxidant defense in both leaves and roots of sugarcane plants under water deficit.

Evidence towards the involvement of nitric oxide in drought tolerance of sugarcane (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 Elsevier Masson SAS Exogenous supply of nitric oxide (NO) increases drought tolerance in sugarcane plants. However, little is known about the role of NO produced by plants under water deficit. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis t... Read More about Evidence towards the involvement of nitric oxide in drought tolerance of sugarcane.

Harnessing evolutionary toxins for signaling: Reactive oxygen species, nitric oxide and hydrogen sulfide in plant cell regulation (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 Hancock. During the early periods of evolution, as well as in niche environments today, organisms have had to learn to tolerate the presence of many reactive compounds, such as reactive oxygen species, nitric oxide, and hydrogen sulfide. It is... Read More about Harnessing evolutionary toxins for signaling: Reactive oxygen species, nitric oxide and hydrogen sulfide in plant cell regulation.

Nitric oxide signalling in plants (2017)
Book Chapter

Nitric oxide (NO) is a small simple molecule but one which is instrumental in cell signalling in a range of organisms including plants. It is a gas, often found in the form of a radical. It is produced in cells in an orchestrated manner, usually by d... Read More about Nitric oxide signalling in plants.

Competition of reactive signals and thiol modifications of proteins (2017)
Journal Article

It is clear that cells are constantly bombarded by multiple signals, often initiating similar, or even conflicting, responses. Important players in this suite of signals are the reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), the rea...
