Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Low temperatures caused oxidative damage to the root and bud tips of germinated maize seeds.
- Intervention effect The GO-SCA coating increased peroxidase activity in the maize radicle at 5 °C compared to the commercial coating.
- Intervention effect The GO-SCA coating limited accumulation of superoxide anions and hydrogen peroxide in the maize germ.
- Intervention effect The 66 g/L GO-SCA treatment (T3) lowered root malondialdehyde content in maize by 24.38% relative to the control group.
- Intervention effect GO-SCA within 44-66 g/L promoted maize germination and growth compared to the commercial coating.
- Intervention effect GO-SCA within 44-66 g/L alleviated low-temperature stress in maize seedlings compared to the commercial coating.
- Mechanism GO-SCA reduces oxidative stress in maize by regulating antioxidant enzyme activity and antioxidant levels.
