Figure 4From: Peroxidase activity in scutella of maize in association with anatomical changes during germination and grain storagePeroxidase activity in maize scutella. a, activity detected with catechin + H2O2; b, inhibiting effects of KCN and SHAM in presence of catechin + H2O2; c, activity detected with guaiacol + H2O2; d, inhibiting effects of KCN and SHAM in presence of guaiacol + H2O2. Results are shown as means ± standard deviations (SD), n = 6. An ANOVA test and Tukey-Kramer Multiple-Comparison Test were performed with p < 0.05. Symbols: data groups with different letters imply significant differences; *, statistically significant group; a, significant effect of SHAM with respect to control; b, significant effect of KCN with respect to control.Back to article page
