Abstract
In this research effect of priming types was investigated on the activity of antioxidant enzymes including Catalase (CAT), Ascorbate peroxidase (APX), Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Malone dialdehyde (MDA) and Gluthation reductase (Gred) in hybrid maize single cross 704 under drought stress. Treatments were drought at 4 levels (0, -3, -6 and -9 bar) and priming (Hormone, hydro, osmo, ascorbic and control). Germination percentage, seedling vigor and the activity of antioxidant enzymes were measured. Results showed that interaction of drought and priming was significant an all traits except of germination percentage. The highest seedling vigor (15.996) obtained from control condition. The highest CAT activity (35 μmol min-1 mg-1) observed in ascorbic acid priming at -9 bar drought stress. Also, the highest APX activity was related to hormone priming and -9 bar. While the lowest activity observed in control drought and osmo-priming. The highest amount of MDA achieved in -9 bar and control priming. The highest SOD activity observed in -9 bar. The highest Gred activity obtained by ascorbic acid priming at -9 bar.
