Participation of light in modification of peroxidase
enzymatic system activity and peroxide hydrogen generation in the wheat
seedlings shoot and root endocellular compartment is revealed. It is
shown that in elevated parts of seedlings light activates oxidase
peroxidase function and causes peroxide hydrogen accumulation
(oxidative burst); in roots – light induces equivalent changes of both
enzymatic functions, without causing change of ROS level.
