To verify whether spermidine synthase (SPDS) can confer long-term multi-heavy metal tolerance, in vitro shoots of a transgenic European pear (Pyrus communis L. 'Ballad') line #32 overexpressing apple SPDS (MdSPDS1), as well as a wild type (WT) line, were subjected to stress using either CdCl(2),
The antioxidant content of fresh-cut 'Flor de Invierno' ( Pyrus communis L.) pears dipped into a 0.75% w/v N-acetylcysteine + 0.75% w/v glutathione solution and packaged under 70 kPa of O2 atmospheres (HOA) was evaluated as an alternative to actively modified low-O2 atmosphere (LOA) and passively
Photoprotective function of anthocyanins along with xanthophyll cycle and antioxidant system in fruit peel was investigated in red 'Anjou' vs green 'Anjou' pear (Pyrus communis) during fruit development and in response to short-term exposure to high light. The sun-exposed peel of red 'Anjou' had
In our previous work, an apple spermidine synthase (SPDS)-overexpressing transgenic European pear (Pyrus communis L. 'Ballad'), line no. 32 (#32), demonstrated attenuated susceptibility to stress treatment. In the current paper, changes in enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant capacity of the
