• Influence of AM fungi on the growth and physiological status of Erythrina variegata Linn. grown under different water stress conditions (2010, background): “In addition, proline act as: (a) osmoprotectants; (b) sink of energy to regulate redox potentials; (c) hydroxyl scanvenger [37,38].”
• Proline Mechanisms of Stress Survival (2013, background): “High proline content in metal-tolerant plants is not unusual (113).”
• Polyamines: molecules with regulatory functions in plant abiotic stress tolerance (2010, background): “In addition, proline (Pro) levels increase in response to various abiotic stresses (Sharma and Dietz 2006; Urano et al. 2009) and polyamine catabolism is closely related to Pro accumulation in response to salt stress (Aziz et al. 1998).”
• Heavy Metal Stress and Some Mechanisms of Plant Defense Response (2015, background): “However, contrary to the above-mentioned works, some reports indicate that Pro tends to more accumulate in shoots ofHM-stressed plants than in roots [146, 210].”
• Heavy Metal Tolerance in Plants: Role of Transcriptomics, Proteomics, Metabolomics, and Ionomics (2016, background): “…the potentiality of alleviating heavy metal toxicity, as it enhances the photosynthetic capacity by increasing chlorophyll synthesis, often synthesizes N-containing metabolites like proline, GSH, etc. and by enhancing the activity of antioxidant enzymes (Sharma and Dietz, 2006; Lin et al., 2011).”
• Alleviation of adverse effects of drought stress on common bean ( Phaseolus vulgaris L.) by exogenous application of hydrogen peroxide (2011, background): “In addition to acting as an osmo-protectant, proline also serves as a sink for energy to regulate redox potentials, as a hydroxyl radical scavenger (Sharma and Dietz 2006), as a solute that protects macromolecules against denaturation and as a means of reducing acidity in the cell (Kishor et al.…”
