Journal ArticleDOI
Seed priming with chitosan improves maize germination and seedling growth in relation to physiological changes under low temperature stress.
TL;DR: It is suggested that seed priming with chitosan may improve the speed of germination of maize seed and benefit for seedling growth under low temperature stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exogenous spermidine improves seed germination of sweet corn via involvement in phytohormone interactions, H 2 O 2 and relevant gene expression
TL;DR: The results suggested that Spd contributing to fast seed germination and high seed vigor of sweet corn might be closely related with the metabolism of hormones including gibberellins, ABA and ethylene, and with the increase of H2O2 in the radical produced partly from Spd oxidation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seed polyamines metabolism induced by seed priming with spermidine and 5-aminolevulinic acid for chilling tolerance improvement in rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings

TL;DR: Investigation of the effects of seed priming with 5 mM of spermidine and 5-Aminolevulinic acid on seed polyamines metabolism associated with the improvement of chilling tolerance in two rice cultivars showed that chilling stress significantly improved superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), ascorbate peroxidsase (APX) and glutathione peroxIDase (GPX), and further enhancement was observed by
Journal ArticleDOI
The Synergistic Priming Effect of Exogenous Salicylic Acid and H2O2 on Chilling Tolerance Enhancement during Maize (Zea mays L.) Seed Germination
Zhan Li,Jungui Xu,Yue Gao,Chun Wang,Genyuan Guo,Luo Ying,Yutao Huang,Weimin Hu,Mohamed S. Sheteiwy,Mohamed S. Sheteiwy,Yajing Guan,Jin Hu +11 more
TL;DR: Results strongly suggested that priming with SA and H2O2 synergistically promoted hormones metabolism and signal transduction, and enhanced energy supply and antioxidant enzymes activities under chilling stress, which were closely relevant with chilling injury alleviation and chilling-tolerance improvement in maize seed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cold plasma treatment and exogenous salicylic acid priming enhances salinity tolerance of Oryza sativa seedlings.
TL;DR: SA priming and cold plasma treatment either alone or combined improved plant uptake of nutrients in both cultivars under stress conditions and helped the plants to recover their cell turgidity under salinity stress.
