Germination Time and Temperature Modulate Bioactive Compound Accumulation in Black Rice (Oryza sativa L.) and Optimize Functional Water-Soluble Extract Production
Seed germination induces profound physiological and metabolic changes that promote the synthesis and accumulation of bioactive metabolites in cereal grains. However, the combined effects of germination time and temperature on these responses in black rice (Oryza sativa L.) remain poorly understood. This study investiga...
