| Abstract: | Following leaf application of salicylic acid (SA), calcium chloride, hydrogen peroxide and 6-benzylaminopurine (BA), Manila
grass (Zoysia matrella) plants were exposed to day/night temperature of 7/2 °C for 120 h in a growth chamber. The lower content of malondialdehyde
(MDA) and H2O2 and higher activities of ascorbate peroxidase (APX), guaiacol peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT) during exposure to low
temperature in pre-treated plants in comparison with control plants demonstrated that these compounds improved the chilling
tolerance of Manila grass. |
