Exogenous Kinetin Promotes the Nonenzymatic Antioxidant System and Photosynthetic Activity of Coffee (<i>Coffea arabica</i> L.) Plants Under Cold Stress Conditions

Exogenous Kinetin Promotes the Nonenzymatic Antioxidant System and Photosynthetic Activity of Coffee (<i>Coffea arabica</i> L.) Plants Under Cold Stress Conditions

Coffee plants are seasonally exposed to low chilling temperatures in many coffee-producing regions. In this study, we investigated the ameliorative effects of kinetin&#8212;a cytokinin elicitor compound on the nonenzymatic antioxidants and the photosynthetic physiology of young coffee plants sub...
