The influence of natural aromatic compounds on the development of Lycopersicon esculentum plantlets

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of flax lignin and phenolic compounds obtained from spruce bark on the development of Lycopersicon esculentum plantlets. Depending on the applied treatment and the concentrations used, the natural aromatic compounds had stimulatory effects on the germination capacity and the plantlets height and leaf area. The influence of lignin on Lycopersicon esculentum was lower comparing to the phenolic extract.
