additional information transgenic pears overexpressing the apple enzyme show higher spermidine contents and enzyme activity than wild-type. No significant differences are detected between transgenic line and the wild type as regards contents of malondialdehyde and H2O2, and activities of antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase, monodehydroascorbate reductase and glutathione reductase. When exposed to NaCl or mannitol stress, both the wild-type and transgenic line exhibit accumulation of spermidine with the latter accumulating more. The transgenic line contains higher antioxidant enzyme activities, less malondialdehyde and H2O2 than the wild-type Malus domestica
