Inhibition of NOS- like activity in maize alters the expression of genes involved in H2O2 scavenging and glycine betaine biosynthesis
Phillips, Kyle; Majola, Anelisa; Gokul, Arun; Keyster, Marshall; Ludidi, Ndiko; Egbichi, Ifeanyi (Nature Publishing Group, 2018)Nitric oxide synthase-like activity contributes to the production of nitric oxide in plants, which controls plant responses to stress. This study investigates if changes in ascorbate peroxidase enzymatic activity and ... -
Water deficit-induced changes in phenolic acid content in maize leaves is associated with altered expression of cinnamate 4-hydroxylase and p-coumaric acid 3-hydroxylase
Kolo, Zintle; Majola, Anelisa; Phillips, Kyle (MDPI, 2023)The amino acid phenylalanine is a precursor to phenolic acids that constitute the lignin biosynthetic pathway. Although there is evidence of a role of some phenolic acids in plant responses to pathogens and salinity, ...
