It is shown that treatment of maize seeds with the growth regulator Ribav-Extra changes the parameters of oxidative stress (generation of superoxide anion and intensity of lipid peroxidation) and stimulated increased antioxidative activity in maize seedlings under unfavorable temperatures. The best indices in the control and affected by unfavorable temperatures plants are noted at a nanoconcentration (1 nL/L, or 10−7%).
