    Abstract: In plant, glyoxalases [glyoxalase I (Gly-I, EC: 4.4.1.5) and glyoxalase II (Gly-II, EC: 3.1.2.6)] and glutathione S-transferase (GST, EC: 2.5.1.18) are major detoxification enzymes. On the other hand, spermidine (Spd) is important polyamine (PA) with significant role which interacts with stress protection mechanisms functioning in common against di... Show More
