Title: Study on cotton seed coating with sweet potato starch super absorbent polymer
Abstract: SPSSAP was used as cotton seed coating,the effect of different pharmacopoeia ratio with coating on the germination and growth of seed in artificial drought conditions was studied.The result showed that the germinating rate,stem length,weight of leaf and stem were increased,the MDA(malonaldehyde) was decreased,and the enzymes PPO(polyphenol oxidase) increased after reasonable coating.Therefore,the SPSSAP is a good water-absorbing polymer,which can improve the drought-resistant ability of cotton greatly during its growth,and it is suggested that the SPSSAP and the cotton seed be in the ratio of 1 ∶60.
