Seed-Soaking with Melatonin for the Improvement of Seed Germination, Seedling Growth, and the Antioxidant Defense System under Flooding Stress
Flooding is the main cause of inhibited seed germination and seedling growth during the direct seeding of rice. As a growth-regulating hormone, melatonin plays an important role in promoting seed germination and enhancing plant stress resistance. However, there are still many unknown mechanisms rela...
