The effects of a novel agrochemical in alleviating salinity stress

ABSTRACT: Yield losses as a result of abiotic stress factors present a significant challenge for the future of global food production. While breeding technologies provide potential to combat negative stress-mediated outcomes over time, interventions which act to prime plant tolerance to stress, via the use of phytohormone-based elicitors for example, could act as a valuable tool for crop protection. However, the translation of fundamental biology into functioning solution is often constrained by knowledge-gaps. Photosynthetic and transcriptomic responses were characterised in young tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) seedlings in response to pre-treatment with a new plant health activator technology, M-bM-^@M-^XAlethea,M-bM-^@M-^Y followed by a subsequent 100 mM salinity stress. Salinity treatment led to
