Abstract

In order to study the impact of salicylic acid on the germination of corn seeds and the seedling growth,the study measured germination rate of seeds,the potential of buds and some of seedling morphological indexes and physiological indexes after soaking seeds with different density of SA.The results showed that there are significant influence of SA on corn seed germination and seedling growth,and generally low concentrations have stimulative effect,high concentrations have inhibition.
