The application of a biostimulant based on tannins affects root architecture and improves tolerance to salinity in tomato plants

Scientific Reports, 2021
Roots have important roles for plants to withstand adverse environmental conditions, including salt stress. Biostimulant application was shown to enhance plant resilience towards abiotic stresses.

Chitosan from Mushroom Improves Drought Stress Tolerance in Tomatoes

Plants
Chitosan is a derivative of chitin that is one of the most abundant biopolymers in nature, found in crustacean shells as well as in fungi cell walls. Most of the commercially available chitosans are produced from the exoskeletons of crustaceans.

Genomic approaches to unveil the physiological pathways activated in Arabidopsis treated with plant-derived raw extracts [PDF]

, 2012
DNA microarrays can be used to obtain a fingerprint of the transcriptional status of the plant or cell under a given condition and may be useful for characterising which genes respond, either by induction or repression, to novel stimuli or specific ...
