Exogenous ascorbic acid (vitamin C) increases resistance to salt stress and reduces lipid peroxidation
Abstract
The transition from reversible to permanent wilting, in whole tomato seedlings (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. M82) following severe salt-stress by root exposure to 300 mM NaCl, was investigated. Salinized seedlings wilted rapidly but recovered if returned to non-saline nutrient solution within 6 h. However, after 9 h of salt-treatment 100% of the seedlings remained wilted and died. Remarkably, the addition of an anti-oxidant (0.5 mM ascorbic acid) to the root medium, prior to and during salt-treatment for 9 h, facilitated the subsequent recovery and long-term survival of c. 50% of the wilted seedlings. Other organic solutes without known anti-oxidant activity were not effective. Salt-stress increased the accumulation in roots, stems and leaves, of lipid peroxidation products produced by interactions with damaging active oxygen species. Additional ascorbic acid partially inhibited this response but did not significantly reduce sodium uptake or plasma membrane leakiness.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
