In non-acclimated bean plants heat shock induced oxidative damage (increase of free radical concentration and drop of bound thiols, indicating aggregation of proteins) which was regulated by the enhanced activities of peroxidase and superoxide dismutase, as well as by the accumulation of polyphenols and especially of polyamines. In the plants acclimated to high temperature no oxidative damage occurred following heat shock.

Keywords: catalase; peroxidase; Phaseolus vulgaris; polyamines; polyphenols; thiols; superoxide dismutase
