Antioxidant networks support resilience by limiting excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) and maintaining redox signalling for stress perception, gene expression, and metabolic reprogramming. We summarize advances (2000-2025) in ROS generation, detoxification mechanisms, and signalling across organelles, including chloroplasts, mitochondria, peroxisomes, and the apoplast. This includes compartmentalized enzymes-superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and glutathione reductase (GR)-as well as the peroxiredoxin-thioredoxin system and non-enzymatic buffers like ascorbate, glutathione, tocopherols, carotenoids, and flavonoids. We uniquely synthesize these findings in a compartment-resolved "redox rheostat" model, linking ROS concentration-time windows (signaling vs. damage) to antioxidant network design (kinetic tiers, compartmentation, and trade-offs) and identifying intervention points for breeding, genome editing, and field-scale priming. We emphasize constraints, such as NADPH supply and antioxidant recycling capacity, that lead to context-dependent outcomes. We evaluate omics, transgenic strategies, genome editing (CRISPR and Cas systems), exogenous applications, and plant-microbe associations. This synthesis clarifies how antioxidant systems protect photosynthetic and respiratory machinery while supporting signalling, thus outlining routes to climate-resilient, yield-stable crops across varied environments and stresses.PMID:41897483 | PMC:PMC13024604 | DOI:10.3390/antiox15030337
