Catalase inhibition accelerates dormancy release and sprouting in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers

Catalase inhibition accelerates dormancy release and sprouting in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers

The involvement of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) metabolism in dormancy release and sprouting of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers has been investigated using three complementary approaches. In the first approach, the evolution of the sprouting kinetics, H2O2 content and antioxidant enzyme activities...
