Copper-caused oxidative stress triggers the activation of antioxidant enzymes via ZmMPK3 in maize leaves.
Copper (Cu) is a necessary trace element participated in many physiological processes in plants. But excessive Cu2+ is toxic, which can activate intracellular signals that lead to cellular damage. The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade is at the center of cell signal transduction and ha...
