Changes in the Dynamics of Aspartate and Alanine Aminotransferase Activity During Germination of Hordeum vulgare L. Seeds

Seed germination is the most important stage in the life cycle of a plant. During seed germination, various metabolic processes that ensure seedling growth are activated and important physiological and biochemical changes occur. The dynamics of changes in the activity of aspartate and alanine aminotransferase enzymes during germination in the grain of two Hordeum vulgare L. genotypes were studied. It was found that a gradual increase in enzyme activity was observed in grain a few hours after the beginning of the germination process.
