• Foliar application of melatonin induces tolerance to drought stress in Moldavian balm plants (Dracocephalum moldavica) through regulating the antioxidant system (2018, background): “Melatonin has both hydrophilic and lipophilic nature and can pass through morphophysiological barriers easily, so it is quickly transported into cells (Galano et al., 2011; Tan et al., 2012).”
• Melatonin: a well‐documented antioxidant with conditional pro‐oxidant actions (2014, background): “Three mechanisms have been proposed and tested, including single electron transfer, hydrogen atom transfer, and radical adduct formation [50, 84].”
• Exogenous melatonin improves growth and photosynthetic capacity of cucumber under salinity-induced stress (2016, background): “Additionally, many reports demonstrated that MT, as its primary function in widespread antioxidant actions (Galano et al. 2011, Tan et al. 2013, Arnao and Hernández-Ruiz 2013b, 2014), was able to alleviate the effects of environmental stress, such as low temperature (Lei et al. 2004), drought (Wang…”
• Melatonin and reactive oxygen and nitrogen species: a model for the plant redox network (2019, background): “(2011) comparing their respective second rate constants, log (k) (44).”
• Melatonin membrane receptors in peripheral tissues: Distribution and functions (2012, positive): “The reactive species melatonin scavenges include hydroxyl radical (HO−), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), nitric oxide (NO−), and various others (Galano et al., 2011; Tan et al., 2001, 1993).”
• Phytomelatonin: Discovery, Content, and Role in Plants (2014, background): “In addition, melatonin is involved in numerous cellular actions as an antioxidant, acting as an excellent in vitro and in vivo free radical scavenger [8–15].”
