The antioxidative protection system as adaptation strategy to high soil salinity in the leaves of two tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) hybrids (Buran F1 and Berberana F1) was investigated. Changes in the activity of superoxide‐dismutase (SOD, EC 1.15.1.1), peroxidase (POD, EC 1.11.1.7), ascorbate peroxidase (APX, EC 1.11.1.11), as well as total and oxidized ascorbate concentrations (AA and DHA) in the plant leaves subjected to three salinity levels (EC 3.80 dS m−1, 6.95 dS m−1, and 9.12 dS m−1) relative to non‐saline control were analyzed during the fruiting phase. The obtained results clearly indicate a relation between SOD activity and AA concentration in the antioxidative protection without any peroxidase‐related H2O2 detoxification. Increased SOD activity accompanied by high AA concentration was noticed at all salinity levels, but the response of hybrids was specific for the particular salt concentration. The first salinity level (EC 3.80 dS m−1) induced the highest level of AA in the Buran F1 (70%), while in Berberana F1 hybrid leaves the highest AA concentration (64%) was noticed at the third salinity level (9.12 dS m−1). All salinity levels caused a decline in POD and APX activities in both hybrids. The possibility of a predominant role of ascorbate and SOD in the antioxidative protection of mature tomato leaves under long‐term salt stress is discussed.
Sport and Film have been widely discussed as separate areas of study. However, the relationship between both fields has not been approached extensively. The main objective of this research is to analyze what is the ideological agenda behind the film The Blind Side (2009) framing the research around the last sequence of the film. This study is positioned under a critic and a de-colonial perspective and using as its main methodology textual analysis. The central argument of this investigation is there is an ideological agenda in The Blind Side that reproduces and aims to maintain dominant and postcolonial logics and structures. ResumenEl deporte y el cine han sido ampliamente discutidos como áreas separadas de estudio. Sin embargo, la relación entre ambos campos no se ha abordado ampliamente. El objetivo principal de esta investigación es analizar cuál es la agenda ideológica detrás de la película The Blind Side (2009) enmarcando la investigación en torno a la última secuencia de la película. Este estudio se posiciona bajo una perspectiva crítica y decolonial y utiliza como metodología principal el análisis textual. El argumento central de esta investigación es que hay una agenda ideológica en The Blind Side que reproduce y apunta a mantener las lógicas y estructuras postcolonialistas dominantes en la sociedad.
