Melatonin influences the early growth stage in Zoysia japonica Steud. by regulating plant oxidation and genes of hormones

Abstract Zoysia japonica is a commonly used turfgrass species around the world. Seed germination is a crucial stage in the plant life cycle and is particularly important for turf establishment and management. Experiments have confirmed that melatonin can be a potential regulator signal in seeds. To...
