Abstract

The influences of flax lignin and phenolic compounds obtained from spruce bark on the development of Lycopersicon esculentum plantlets were evaluated. 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 compared to the phenolic extract.
