Antioxidant defense responses: physiological plasticity in higher plants under abiotic constraints (2009, background): “Antioxidants such as AA and glutathione are involved in the neutralization of secondary products of ROS reactions (Conklin 2001).”
Impact of Exogenous Ascorbic Acid on Antioxidant Activity and Some Physiological Traits of Common Bean Subjected to Salinity Stress (2009, positive): “Ascorbic acid has also been shown to play multiple roles in plant growth, such as in cell division, cell wall expansion, and other developmental processes (Smirnoff, 1996; Asada, 1999; Conklin, 2001; photometry method.”
Melatonin and Gibberellic Acid Promote Growth and Chlorophyll Biosynthesis by Regulating Antioxidant and Methylglyoxal Detoxification System in Tomato Seedlings Under Salinity (2020, background): “ASC, as a most abundant antioxidant, directly involves in quenching ROS (singlet oxygen and O·–), and also indirectly eliminates H2O2 by maintaining membrane-bound antioxidant α‐tocopherol in the reduced state (Conklin 2001).”
Physiology and molecular biology of stress tolerance in plants (2006, background): “In addition AsA plays a major role in photoprotection as a cofactor in the xanthophyll cycle (Conklin, 2001).”
