Oxidative Metabolism Of Rye (Secale cereal L.) After Short Term Exposure to Aluminum: Uncovering The Glutathione-Ascorbate Redox Network

One of the major limitations to plant growth and yield in acidic soils is the prevalence of soluble aluminum ions (Al3+) in the soil solution, which can irreversible damage the root apex cells. Nonetheless, many Al-tolerant species overcome Al toxicity and are well adapted to acidic soils, being abl...
