Effect
Increased produce quality
Fylloton treated Common bean, cv. Oczko, showed significantly increased number of pods.m-2 (+17%), increased number of seeds.m-2 (+23.1%), increased seed yield (g/m2)(+14.3%), decreased 1000 seed weight (g)(-7.1%), seed had an increased protein content (%DM)(+6.7%), no difference in total phenols (mg/g DM) (+29.4%), and increased total flavonoids (mg/g DM) (+77.6%), when averaged across three growing seasons and application timings, compared to untreated control plants. Double spraying was most effective.
