Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Salinity progressively decreased germination velocity of wheat seeds.
- Intervention effect Thiourea and betaine, alone or in combination, elevated germination velocity of wheat seeds.
- Intervention effect Thiourea significantly improved germination velocity at 225 mM NaCl.
- Intervention effect Growth regulators combined with NaCl increased the level of reducing sugars in the embryo of wheat seeds.
- Intervention effect Growth regulators combined with NaCl decreased reducing sugars in the endosperm of wheat seeds.
- Intervention effect Growth regulators combined with NaCl enhanced amylase activity in wheat seeds.
- Intervention effect Thiourea was more effective than betaine in the mobilization process in wheat seeds.
