Hydrogen Peroxide in Plant Use
On the Application of Hydrogen Peroxide to Plants
Hydrogen peroxide is widely used in plants. It is closely related to plant physiological activities.
When plants grow, hydrogen peroxide can act as a signaling molecule to regulate various processes. For example, when seeds germinate, an appropriate amount of hydrogen peroxide can initiate their germination sequence. It can affect the balance of plant hormones, such as interacting with abscisic acid, gibberellin, etc., prompting seeds to break dormancy and germinate and grow.
Hydrogen peroxide also plays a great role in plants coping with adversity. In times of drought and salinity, the level of hydrogen peroxide in plants often changes. Moderately elevated hydrogen peroxide can activate plant defense mechanisms and induce enhanced activity of antioxidant enzyme systems, such as superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, etc., to resist the damage of reactive oxygen species, maintain intracellular redox balance, and help plants tolerate stress.
And hydrogen peroxide is also a key factor in plant disease resistance. Plants are attacked by pathogens, which will produce hydrogen peroxide, which triggers allergic reactions and limits the spread of pathogens. At the same time, it can induce plants to produce disease-related proteins and enhance plant resistance to diseases.
However, the amount of hydrogen peroxide needs to be precisely regulated. Excessive hydrogen peroxide is a harm to plants. It is highly oxidizing and can damage biological macromolecules such as cell membranes, proteins and nucleic acids, causing damage to plant cell function, growth inhibition, and even death. Therefore, plants have evolved complex mechanisms to balance the level of hydrogen peroxide in the body and ensure their own growth, development and ability to cope with environmental changes.
Therefore, hydrogen peroxide plays an important role in plant growth, development, stress resistance and disease resistance. Understanding its mechanism and making good use of it can provide useful ideas and methods for agricultural production, plant protection and other fields, promoting good plant growth and increasing crop yield and quality.
