Verbatim
e1“Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants were subjected to mild water stress during grain filling”
e2“The embryos of grains water stressed at milk and soft dough stages showed lowest contents of H2O2 and malondialdehyde and highest membrane stability index, ascorbic acid content, and activities of catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase as compared to control embryos or water-stressed at other stages”
