Exogenous nitric oxide relieves iron-inhibitory effect on wheat seed germination by Shuqian Shi, Zhe Zhang, Rongrong Ma, Yihui Tao, Ziling Wang, Yingli Yang

“…However, SNP treatment ameliorated Fe stress-induced inhibition of seed germination, increased NO levels, upregulated starch degradation, and improved the antioxidant system and reactive oxygen species scavenging. Conclusively, exogenous NO treatment alleviates the inhibitory effects of Fe on wheat seed germination by enhancing endogenous NO synthesis, promoting starch decomposition, and alleviating oxidative damage.…”
