Ferulic acid mediated changes in oxidative enzymes of maize seedlings: implications in growth.

1996

Rama Devi S. | Prasad M.N.V.

Maize seedlings were grown in the presence of ferulic acid for 8 d. Treatment with ferulic acid considerably decreased shoot and root length, increased the activity of peroxidase, catalase and indole-3-acetic acid oxidase and decreased the activity of polyphenol oxidase. The increased activity of peroxidase correlated with pronounced increase in content of lignin and phenolic compounds.
