Abstract:Safflower is an important oleiferous crop species in the world. Aging tests are used to simulate cell damage occurring during the long term storage of seeds. In the present study, accelerated aging (AA) test was employed to investigate response of antioxidant enzymes in safflower. Four genotypes of safflower, previously classified as aging resistant (Bayer-6 and Bayer-12) and sensitive (Olas and Linas) based on AA test, were used as seed materials and AA treatments at 43 °C consisted of 5 different times (0, 4… Show more
