Example, to search for all recorded cases of biostimulant use on tomato mitigate effects of drought type: "tomato, drought"

CycoFlow

Type: Plant extract, Company: Agriges

Effect

Increased heat stress tolerance

CycoFlow treated tomato, landrace E17/E36/E107/PDVIT, showed significantly decreased (E17/E36)-no difference (E107)-increased (PDVIT) fresh weight biomass, increased pollen viability, no difference in (E17/E36/E107) - increased (PDVIT) number of fruits per plant, increased yield, no difference in (E17/E36)-increased (E107/PDVIT) maximal photochemical efficiency, increased leaf 'reduced AsA' (+114.1%, not significant for E107/PDVIT), increased leaf total AsA (significant for E36/PDVIT, decrease for E107), decreased leaf phenols (-11.2%; not significant for E36; significantly increased for PDVIT), increased leaf carotenoids (no difference for E36/E107), no difference in leaf Chl a (significantly increased for E36), increased leaf Chl b (no difference for E17/PDVIT), increased leaf LAA (no difference for E17/E36), no difference in leaf HAA, increased fruit 'reduced AsA', no difference in fruit total AsA (increased for PDVIT), increased fruit phenols (no difference for E107) and increased fruit HAA (no difference for E107/PDVIT), compared to untreated control plants.
