Overexpression of Mn-superoxide dismutase in maize leaves leads to increased monodehydroascorbate reductase, dehydroascorbate reductase and glutathione reductase activities

The effect of increased Mn-superoxide dismutase (SOD) on antioxidant enzymes and metabolites was studied using transformed maize, TG1+ and TG2+. The progeny of the backcross of each of the primary transformants with the parental line generated two populations denoted M6884 and M6885. These were grow...
