The purpose of the present work was to evaluate both the antioxidant response system and oxidative stress in leaves from bitter gourd (Momordica charantia L) subjected to NaCl, UV-B and water stresses at three different stages of plant growth: pre-flowering, flowering and post-flowering. Except for peroxidase (POX), all enzyme activities including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), polyphenol oxidase (PPO), glutathione reductase (GR), as well as concentrations of ascorbate (ASA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) exhibited maximum values at the flowering stage under all three stresses. All the enzyme activities, SOD, CAT, POX, PPO, GR and the concentrations of ASA, H2O2 and TBARS were elevated under NaCl... |
