additional information | RcAPX is found in all tested tissues with highest amounts in young petioles. Enzyme RcAPX shows differential expression in different tissues at various developmental stages. RcAPX expression is significantly suppressed by galls, Galla chinensis, resulting from the galling aphid Schlechtendalia chinensis parasitizing the vein or compound leaves of Rhus chinensis | Rhus chinensis | - |

physiological function | ascorbate peroxidase (APX) is the key enzyme in hydrogen peroxide degradation, and may have a critical function in plant-aphid interactions. The enzyme has an essential function in the scavenging of H2O2 produced in normal metabolic conditions or under environmental stress due to drought | Rhus chinensis |
