Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect PEG pretreatment increased soybean seed germination rate relative to the control.
- Intervention effect PEG pretreatment increased soybean seed vigour index relative to the control.
- Intervention effect PEG pretreatment decreased soybean seed conductivity rate relative to the control.
- Observation Pretreatment with 20% PEG for 8 hours was the most effective pretreatment.
- Intervention effect Respiratory intensity during germination was initially lower than the control, then rose rapidly.
- Intervention effect PEG pretreatment lowered the rate of O - 2 · production during germination.
- Intervention effect PEG pretreatment increased specific superoxide dismutase activity.
- Intervention effect PEG pretreatment lowered MDA accumulation during germination.
- Mechanism The authors related the PEG-associated rise in vigour index to active oxygen metabolism.
