Oxygen and environmental stress in plants: and evolutionary context

Contemporary plant species show a wide range of responses to oxidative attack. Much of this variation may reflect the different environmental selective pressures operating at different geological periods over the course of angiosperm evolution. Evidence is provided to show that the wide range of contemporary responses to oxidative stress may directly reflect the persistence of genes controlling free radical processes under environments of the past.
