Other claims from this paper (6)
- Mechanism Glycinebetaine improves water status of salt-stressed wheat mainly by increasing solute sugars and free proline.
- Intervention effect Glycinebetaine increased osmotic adjustment ability of salt-stressed wheat seedlings.
- Intervention effect Glycinebetaine alleviated oxidative stress caused by salt stress in wheat seedlings.
- Intervention effect GB-treated wheat seedlings maintained higher antioxidant enzyme (SOD, APX and POD) activities than non-GB treated seedlings under salt stress.
- Intervention effect Exogenous glycinebetaine inhibited degradation of chlorophyll and soluble proteins caused by salt stress.
- Intervention effect Exogenous glycinebetaine protected the integrity and stability of membranes of salt-stressed wheat seedlings.
