Effect of salt stress on the heat-induced oxidative stress in P. kudriavzevii. Effect of salt stress on the A ROS-positive cell rate and B dead cell rate of P. kudriavzevii incubated at 45 °C. C Representative flow cytometry dot plots after double staining with DCFH-DA and PI. Q1: DCF−/PI+, ROS-negative cells/dead cells; Q2: DCF+/PI+, ROS-positive cells/dead cells; Q3: DCF−/PI−, ROS-negative cells/living cells; Q4: DCF+/PI−, ROS-positive cells/living cells. Effects of salt stress on the D oxidative damage and E antioxidant enzyme activities of P. kudriavzevii incubated at 45 °C. Data labelled with different letters are statistically different at p < 0.05 applying one-way ANOVA and the Tukey test
