Antioxidants protect plants against damage caused by anoxia
Paradoxically, anoxia can lead to oxidative damage from reactive oxygen species (ROS). Sites of ROS formation and the mechanisms of lipid peroxidation as well as protection against this damage by antioxidants are discussed in this review by Blokhina et al. (pp. 179-194), in connection with anoxia-specific metabolic changes.
