ABSTRACT
Responses of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, malonic di-aldehyde (MDA) level and pigments (chlorophyll, carotenoids) content were evaluated in roots and leaf tissues of wheat plants (Roma; CZR 1334) which were grown in soil (Eutric Cambisol) pre-exposed to anoxia by flooding, during return of oxic conditions in the root zone.
