Dehydration-related changes of peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase activity in fronds of the resurrection fern Asplenium ceterach L.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Asplenium ceterach belongs to a group of poikilohydric ferns and it can recover uninjured from an almost completely dehydrated state. In our study, short term dehydration (24h) at four different water potentials, resulted in moderate water loss (partial desiccation) in fern tissue. The main phenolic acids represented in A. ceterach were chlorogenic (CGA) and caffeic acid (CA) and their content decreased during the dehydration process. For the first time, peroxidase (POD) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) isoforms were determined in the rustyback fern. The results exhibit the presence of numerous anionic POD isoforms, with pI ranging from 4.4 to 5.8, but none of the cationic isoforms was detected. Two PPO isoforms were identified, one anionic with pI 6.3 and one cationic with pI of about 9.0. Short-term dehydration brought about a remarkable increase in POD and PPO activity using CGA as a substrate. Changes in enzyme activity and content of substrates during dehydration may play an important role in the adaptation of the rustyback fern to water deficit, and increase the overall plant resistance to stress conditions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
