- Intervention effect Seed priming has potential to give more uniform and synchronous sorghum emergence.
- Intervention effect Seed priming strengthened the antioxidant activities of APX, CAT and POD in sorghum seedlings.
- Intervention effect Seed priming strengthened the antioxidant activity of SOD in sorghum seedlings.
- Intervention effect Seed priming strengthened the contents of free amino acid, reducing sugar and proline in sorghum seedlings.
- Intervention effect Seed priming strengthened the contents of soluble sugar and soluble protein in sorghum seedlings.
- Intervention effect Seed priming reduced lipid peroxidation in sorghum under stress.
