Regulatory roles of sugars in plant growth and development (2018, background): “Thus, nowadays, some studies have been focused on the role of sugars as scavengers of reactive oxygen species [73].”
ROS Regulation During Abiotic Stress Responses in Crop Plants (2015, background): “Besides traditional enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants, increasing evidences indicated that soluble sugars, including disaccharides, raffinose family oligosaccharides and fructans, have a dual role with respect to ROS (Couee et al., 2006; Keunen et al., 2013).”
Sucrose signaling pathways leading to fructan and anthocyanin accumulation: A dual function in abiotic and biotic stress responses? (2014, background): “…(Shinozaki and Yamaguchi-2 Shinozaki, 1999; Gould et al., 2002; Nagata et al., 2003), the ROS scavenging properties 3 of fructans and other soluble plant sugars were only recently recognized (Stoyanova et 4 al., 2011; Hernandez-Marin and Martínez, 2012; Keunen et al., 2013; Peshev et al., 5 2013).”
