Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), an active oxygen species, is widely generated in many biological systems and mediates various physiological and biochemical processes in plants. In the present study, we present a signaling network involving H₂O₂, nitric oxide (NO), calcium (Ca²⁺), cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade during adventitious rooting in mung bean seedlings. Both exogenous H₂O₂ and the NO donor sodium nitroprussiate were capable of promoting the formation and development of adventitious roots. H₂O₂ and NO signaling pathways were elicited in parallel in auxin-induced adventitious rooting. Cytosolic Ca²⁺ was required for adventitious rooting, and Ca²⁺ served as a downstream component of H₂O₂, as well as cGMP or MAPK, signaling cascades. cGMP and MAPK cascades function downstream of H₂O₂ signaling and depend on auxin responses in adventitious root signaling processes.
