• Nitric Oxide Stimulates Antioxidant System and Osmotic Adjustment in Soybean Under Drought Stress (2020, background): “NO is involved in the promotion of growth and development, leaf enlargement, seed germination, cell cycle regulation, and morphogenesis (Beligni and Lamattina 2000; Hong et al. 2008).”
• Nitric oxide signalling in plants. (2003, background): “AOX1a gene expression was induced within 2 h by treatment with NOR-3, such induction being suppressed strongly by removal of NO with cPTIO, confirming that the effects of NOR-3 were indeed due to NO generation.”
• Evidence for the involvement of nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species in osmotic stress tolerance of wheat seedlings: Inverse correlation between leaf abscisic acid accumulation and leaf water loss (2004, background): “For example, NO is involved in hypocotyl elongation (Beligni and Lamattina 2000), root growth (Gouvêa et al.”
• The effects of potassium nitrate and NO-donors on phytochrome A- and phytochrome B-specific induced germination of Arabidopsis thaliana seeds (2002, background): “Similarly, Beligni and Lamattina (2000) reported that the application of the NO donor, SNP, substituted for the light requirement of Lactuca sativa seeds, enabling them to germinate in darkness.”
• Protective roles of nitric oxide on germination and antioxidant metabolism in wheat seeds under copper stress (2007, background): “Recently, accumulating evidence shows that NO plays a role in seed germination of different species, such as Arabidopsis (Bethke et al. 2004), warmseason grasses (Sarath et al. 2006) and lettuce (Beligni and Lamattina 2000).”
• Exogenous nitric oxide protects against salt-induced oxidative stress in the leaves from two genotypes of tomato (Lycopersicom esculentum Mill.) (2011, background): “NO was reported to be involved in seed germination (Beligni and Lamattina 2000), growth and cell proliferation (Ribeiro et al.”
• Interaction Between Polyamine and Nitric Oxide Signaling in Adaptive Responses to Drought in Cucumber (2009, neutral): “NO was also shown to be involved in plant growth and developmental processes, starting from germination up to flowering, ripening of fruit, and senescence of plant organs (Leshem and Haramaty 1996; Beligni and Lamattina 2000; Hung and Kao 2003; Pagnussat and others 2004; Prado and others 2004).”
• Interaction between reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide in drought-induced abscisic acid synthesis in root tips of wheat seedlings (2001, background): “More recently, NO was identified as a signal in some light-mediated processes (Beligni and Lamattina 2000).”
• cGMP signalling in plants: from enigma to main stream. (2018, background): “Further indications for a role of cGMP in germination stem from observations of an NO-induced stimulant of lettuce seed germination (Beligni and Lamattina 2000), presumably via the stimulatory activity”
• Regulation of nitric oxide (NO) production by plant nitrate reductase in vivo and in vitro. (2002, background): “It can further influence plant growth (Leshem and Haramaty, 1996; Beligni and Lamattina, 2000; Leshem, 2000), protect against cytotoxicity of reactive oxygen species (Beligni and Lamattina, 1999) and cause the accumulation of phytoalexin (Noritake et al., 1996).”
• Salicylic acid to decrease plant stress (2016, background): “…regulates different developmental and physiological processes in plants and is involved in growth and differentiation (Gouvea et al. 1997; Leshem et al. 1998; Barroso et al. 1999), senescence (Leshem et al. 1998), and seed germination (Keeley and Fotheringham 1997; Beligni and Lamattina 2000).”
• Carbon monoxide counteracts the inhibition of seed germination and alleviates oxidative damage caused by salt stress in Oryza sativa (2007, background): “For example, Beligni and Lamattina provided evidence that NO was related to the light-dependent seed germination process [ 40 ].”
