“…This table shows protein, crude fiber, ash, moisture, lipid and carbohydrate contents. One of the nutritional benefits of radish roots is its high concentration of complex carbohydrates and dietary fiber (Levine et al, 2008).…”

“…ORAC assay measures the scavenging capacity of antioxidants in samples against the peroxyl radical (ROO·), one of the most common reactive oxygen species (ROS) found in the body. The assay mimics reactions of antioxidants with lipids in a physiological system and has been adopted by the USDA as a standardized test to measure antioxidant potency of foods and nutritional supplements (Levine et al, 2008). According to Levine et al (2008), root extracts had 22 mmol TE/100 g d.m., which is much higher than that in leaf extract (12 mmol TE/100 g d.m.).…”

“…Period of callus formation was similar under diverse atmospheric pressures; however the time of shoot formation was different. Several reports are available regarding effects of hypobaric conditions on physiological changes in crop plants (Mansell et al 1968, Andre and Massimino 1992, Massimino and Andre 1999, Goto et al 1995, 1996, He et al 2009a, Levine et al 2008, Stanghellinni and Bunce 1993, but effects on regeneration potential in plants was not yet reported. The regenerated shoots appeared after 18 d of culture at 30 kPa and 14 d at 60 and 101 kPa.…”

Effects of reduced atmospheric pressure on morphogenic potential and antioxidative enzyme activities in regenerated tissues of Saussurea involucrata were evaluated. Leaf explants were cultured at atmospheric pressure 30, 60 or 101 kPa on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium with several plant growth regulators (PGRs). Oxygen and carbon dioxide partial pressures were maintained at 21 and 0.038 kPa, respectively. At 60 kPa, 12 shoots per explant were recorded, which was 1.5 and 2.1-folds higher than at 101 and 30 kPa, respectively. A shooting frequency of 80 % was observed at 60 and 101 kPa. Rooted plantlets were obtained on MS medium with indoleacetic acid. At 30, 60 and 101 kPa, rooting of shoots was 49, 72 and 85.6 %, respectively. The rooted plantlets were successfully acclimatized to soil. Activities of all of antioxidative enzymes determined in present study were affected by hypobaric conditions.Additional key words: auxin, catalase, peroxidase, shoot organogenesis, superoxide dismutase.

“…Pressures can go as low as 1-2 kPa with plants and water inside, while still holding temperature and humidity, and the closed atmosphere of the chambers allows close tracking of whole canopy gas exchange rates at the diff erent pressures (Chamberlain et al, 2003) [36]. Testing included studies of pressure eff ects on plant gene expression [143], plant biochemical responses (Levine et al, 2008) [108], whole plant growth and development studies (Wehkamp et al, 2012) [190], and more.…”
