Pretreatment with Antioxidants Decreases the Effects of Salt Stress on Chloroplast Ultrastructure in Rice Leaf Segments (Oryza sativa L.)

We investigated the kinds of active oxygen species leading to the destruction of chloroplast ultrastructure in salt-stressed rice plants. After the seedlings were grown for 3 wks, leaf segments (5 mm square) were cut from the middle portion of the 5th leaves. Leaf segments were incubated in 200 mM N...
