The peroxidase activity was higher in wounded tissue treated with salts or water
as compared to the unwounded control, and showed an increase with time, reaching
its maximum at 12–24 h (Fig. 2C).
The highest activity of peroxidase was detected in
SB-treated tissue, where it was 1.7-fold higher compared to unwounded controls.
However, in tissues treated with SC, the peak of activity (1.6-fold) was reached 12 h
earlier than in SB-treated tissues
