Iron also acts as the cofactor of many antioxidant enzymes, and thus iron deficiency has a regulatory effect on the antioxidant mechanisms, including the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT) in plants [4], which are in charge of protecting the biological system against the harmful effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS) [5]. This evidence concerns the gene CAT and Iron deficiency anemia.
