==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'')..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'')..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'')..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'')..&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ref1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:lyy1.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Evolution===&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The effect of Flu on the expression of ''OsAPx8'' and increase in APx activity was reversed by the application of ABA. It appears that NaCl-enhanced expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots is mediated through an accumulation of ABA. Evidence is provided to show that Na+ but not Cl– is required for enhancing ''OsAPx8'' expression, APx activity, and ABA accumulation in rice roots treated with NaCl. H2O2 treatment resulted in an enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' induction but no accumulation of ABA. Diphenylene iodonium treatment, which is known to inhibit NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 in rice roots, did not suppress ''OsAPx8'' induction and ABA accumulation by NaCl. It appears that H2O2 is not involved in the regulation of NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots.The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

==Annotated Information==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Function===&lt;br /&gt;
The results obtained so far seem to conclude that NaCl-inducing OsAPx8 expression in rice roots is associated with ionic but not osmotic component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
Ascorbate peroxidase (APx; EC 1.11.1.11) plays an important role in scavenging the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'' and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;

Please input function information here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Expression===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In stress-induced gene expression, ABA has been thought to be a candidate for a signal transducer. The present study indicated that ABA was involved in regulating the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots by NaCl. This conclusion was based on the following observations:(i) NaCl treatment resulted in an increase in the endogenous level of ABA (Fig. 2B) and the induction of ''OsAPx8'' expression in rice roots (Fig. 2A); (ii) the expression of ''OsAPx8'' in rice roots was enhanced by exogenous ABA (Fig. 3A); (iii) the increase in ABA levels due to NaCl preceded the enhancement of ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig. 2); (iv) Flu treatment reduced the ABA level, as well as NaCl-induced ''OsAPx8'' expression (Fig.4); and (v) the effect of Flu on the reduction of ''OsAPx8'' expression caused by NaCl can be reversed by the application of ABA (Fig. 4A). The present results suggest that NaCl-enhanced ''OsAPx8'' expression is mediated through ABA accumulation in rice roots.&lt;br /&gt;

===Knowledge Extension===&lt;br /&gt;
Soil salinity, particularly due to NaCl, can be considered as the single most widespread soil toxicity problem that global rice production faces at present. Salinity influences a number of physiological processes. These processes include photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water absorption, root growth, and cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Roots play a number of important roles during plant growth and development, and typically are the first and critical part of the plant to encounter soil salinity. When growing in saline soil, roots have to cope with two types of stress. The first of these is an osmotic stress resulting from salt concentration in the soil that results in lowered water potential and a consequent loss of cell turgor in roots. The second is ionic stress induced by changes in the concentrations of Na+, Cl-, or both in the root growing medium and within root tissues. In addition to its known components of osmotic stress and ion toxicity, salt stress is also manifested as an oxidative stress, all of which contribute to its deleterious effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) seems to occur as a response to most, if not all, abiotic stresses including drought and salinity. To minimize and/or to protect against the toxic effects of these damaging ROS, cells have evolved highly regulated enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to keep a balance between ROS production and destruction in order to maintain cellular redox homeostasis. ROS-scavenging enzymes include superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APx), glutathione reductase, and catalase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APx (EC 1.11.1.11) belongs to the class I haemcontaining peroxidases found in higher plants and catalyses the conversion of H2O2 to H2O and O2 using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It plays an important role in scavenging and in protecting cells against the toxic effects of H2O2 in higher plants. The fact that APx has a high affinity for H2O2 and is able to detoxify low concentrations of H2O2, whereas catalase has a high reaction rate but a low affinity for H2O2, renders APx an ideal candidate for tight regulation of H2O2. APx is located in different cellular compartments. Eight types of APx have been described for Oryza sativa: two cytosolic (''OsAPx1'' and ''OsAPx2''), two putative peroxisomal (''OsAPx3'' and ''OsAPx4''), and four chloroplastic isoforms (''OsAPx5'', ''OsAPx6'', ''OsAPx7'', and ''OsAPx8'').&lt;br /&gt;
