Abstract

Ascorbic acid content and redox-enzymes activities of AA system are determined in four population of Dasypyrum villosum adapted to live in different environments. In D. villosum from the driest and warmest environment (Pachino), AFR reductase and AA peroxidase have activities lower than in the other populations. The results point out the role of AA peroxidase as the main "scavenger" of the H2O2 produced by cell metabolism.
