Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect EBL restored photosynthetic activity and raised productivity under reduced irrigation.
- Intervention effect Both compounds increased antioxidant enzyme activities and preserved chloroplast structure.
- Intervention effect Both compounds reduced drought-induced oxidative damage.
- Intervention effect Lipid peroxidation, electrolyte loss and chloroplast H2O2 formation were reduced relative to control.
- Intervention effect Chlorophyll content and photosynthetic oxygen evolution increased.
- Intervention effect Nutrient uptake, auxin and cytokinin levels improved.
- Intervention effect Abscisic acid levels were reduced.
- Recommendation ALA or EBL at 30 mg·L−1 was recommended to promote banana growth, productivity and fruit quality under drought.
