e0“Industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) seedlings are sensitive to drought stress”
e3“Three drought treatments were imposed: control (normal water), drought (50% substrate moisture) and drought + AsA (50% substrate moisture + 200 mg/L AsA)”
e6“exogenous AsA treatment increased the carotene content by approximately 108.40% in YM and 88.53% in BM”
