Foliar application of 24-epibrassinolide enhances leaf nicotine content under low temperature conditions during the mature stage of flue-cured tobacco by regulating cold stress tolerance by Haiyang Chen, Shuaitao Zhang, Jianbo Chang, Hongru Wei, Hongchen Li, Chaoyang Li, Junjie Yang, Zhengxiong Song, Zhaojun Wang, Jin Lun, Xuelin Zhang, Lihua Li, Xiaoquan Zhang

“…Abstract Background Low temperatures disrupt nitrogen metabolism in tobacco, resulting in lower nicotine content in the leaves. 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) is a widely used plant growth regulator known for its roles in enhancing cold tolerance and nitrogen metabolism. Nevertheless, it remains unclear whether EBR enhances leaf nicotine content under low temperature conditions during the mature stage of flue-cured tobacco. …”
