Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Sargassum extract increased tomato seedling growth by 7.80% over the control at the end of the experiment.
- Intervention effect Under saline conditions, Sargassum extract did not modify tomato seedling growth.
- Intervention effect Sargassum extract increased tomato stem diameter by 14.85% over its control in unstressed conditions.
- Intervention effect Sargassum extract increased total fresh biomass by 19.25% over its control in unstressed conditions.
- Intervention effect Sargassum extract increased total dry biomass by 18.11% over its control in unstressed conditions.
- Association Under saline conditions, total fresh and dry biomass of tomato did not change.
- Association NaCl stress increased enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants in tomato seedlings.
- Association Application of algal products (Sargassum and A. nodosum) increased enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants in tomato seedlings.
- Association Enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidant increase was positively related to defense gene expression in tomato seedlings.
- Mechanism The hydroalcoholic Sargassum extract possibly increased tomato tolerance to salinity through synergistic effects.
