AOS, reactive oxygen species

Evidence Snippets

Active oxygen species (AOS) have been proposed as a central component of plant adaptation to both biotic and abiotic stresses. Under such conditions, AOS may play two very different roles: exacerbating damage or signaling the activation of defense responses.
