CARBOHYDRATE OXIDASE GENE EXPRESSION IN SUNFLOWER DURING OROBANCHE CUMANA INFECTION
Carbohydrate oxidases (SCO) represent a class of enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism and in the generation of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), a key molecule in redox signaling and in the activation of plant defense responses. In this study, the transcriptional responses of the SCO gene were analyzed in three sunflowe...
