Abstract:
Apoptotic cell response in oats is induced by victorin a host-selective toxin secreted by Cochliobolus victoriae and thought to exert toxicity by inhibiting mitochondrial glycine decarboxylase (GDC) in Pc-2/Vb oats. We examined the role of mitochondria

Keywords:
oats; apoptosis; mitochondria; reactive oxygen species; victorin; antimycin A

Materials & Methods:
The peel tissues were then washed with distilled water for 10 min and placed in a 35 mm glass-bottomed microwell dish (Mattek Corporation Ashland MA USA) containing 5 ng ml 1 victorin to prepare for observation.

Microscopic Technique
Fluorescence Microscopy

Cell Type(s)
NG108
