Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Foliar sprays of micronized Lithothamnium sp. improved phenolic and flavonoid content of onion bulbs.
- Recommendation The 1.5 g L-1 dose of Lithothamnium sp. in solution was highlighted as the best spray dose.
- Observation Genotype interactions and storage effects were observed in onion bulbs.
- Mechanism Lithothamnium sp. biofertilization is suggested to raise onion antioxidant capacity by improving mineral nutrient acquisition.
