antioxidants
Antioxidants are compounds that neutralize free radicals and inhibit oxidation, protecting cells from chemical damage. In plant science, antioxidants play a critical role in how plants defend against environmental stresses such as UV radiation, drought, and pathogens. Researchers study the biosynthesis and accumulation of plant-derived antioxidants both to understand stress response mechanisms and to develop crops with enhanced nutritional and preservation qualities.
