Abstract
The activities of peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase and superoxide dismutase was significantly lower in roots and leaves of NaCl stressed radish (Raphanus sativus L.) plants. Addition of triadimefon to the NaCl stressed plants increased peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase and superoxide dismutase activities, and thereby ameliorated the negative effect of NaCl stress.
