Effects of benzyladenine on the growth of waterlogged tomato plants.
Treatment of waterlogged tomato plants with benzyladenine relieved most of the symptoms of flooding injury. The effects of benzyladenine included maintenance of chlorophyll levels, reduced epinastic curvature of petioles, absence of adventitious roots, and stem growth greater than that of waterlogged control plants.
