The yield of agricultural crops directly depends on their ability to adapt to a constantly changing environment, the unfavorable climatic conditions of which cause oxidative stress, accompanied by the generation of reactive oxygen species in plant cells, which can cause damage to heteropolymer cell structures, thereby leading to suppression of plant growth and a decrease in productivity grains. It has been shown that the profile of the antioxidant activity of the peroxidase system in histone and non-histone blocks of structures (nucleoplasm, chromatin) of cell nuclei during germination is more pronounced in the cold-resistant variety Mironovskaya 808 (winter) compared to Mironovskaya yarovaya (spring), which correlates with the intensity of growth processes and can be associated with participation in the realization of proliferation and differentiation programs. A direct relationship between the scavenging of ROS and plant resistance to temperature stress, which is often associated with the increased activity of antioxidant enzymes that impart stress resistance to both high and low temperature stress, apparently also exists at the level of the plant cell nucleus.
