Effect of different seed deterioration treatments and germination under different temperatures on the activity of antioxidant enzymes and lipid peroxidation in Pumpkin (Cucurbita p... by S. Ghahremani, M. Sedghi, R. Seyed Sharifi

“…The highest respiration index (0.018 mg) achieved in 5 days deterioration and 35°C and the lowest value (0.009 mg) was related to 10 days deterioration and 35°C. It seems that reduction in seed vigor under deterioration and high temperatures causes to oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation and leads to increase in the activity of antioxidant enzymes in order to face the related damages. …”
