EBR significantly enhance growth, yield by activating antioxidant enzymes under stress condition

[105]

Salt

Peppermint

2016

EBR play a protective role to alleviate salt stress effect and improve growth

[106]

Salt

Lettuce

2012

EBR have ability to enhance growth, GS enzyme activity, macro and micro nutrients uptake, improve cell membrane stability under salt stress

[107]

Salinity

2016

EBR significantly enhance in vitro potato adventitious root growth, root length, root number, bio mass, root activity, maintaining K+/Na+ homeostasis and antioxidant capacity

[108]

Salt

Eggplant

2012

EBR increase superoxide dismutase, guaiacol peroxidase, catalase and ascorbate peroxidase, and also increase essential ion contents under salt stress

[109]

Salt/copper

Cucumber

2013

EBR enhanced the level of antioxidant system (superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase and proline) and improved growth parameters, both under stress and stress-free conditions
