Title

Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Seaweed extract increased proline content before drought by 46.3 to 145.4% versus control.
- Intervention effect The proline increase persisted to day 10 of stress, at 60.1 to 201.7% above reference plants.
- Intervention effect Seaweed extract did not affect yield parameters under severe drought.
- Mechanism The authors infer that the extract makes proline synthesis more responsive to water deficit.
