Table 4 Pod fresh weight (g plant-1) of two soybean genotypes (Coraline and Speeda) at the end of R4 stage as affected by hydrogen peroxide foliar spray application under drought stress conditions (D: drought from R1 till R2 stage, D1: drought from R1 till R2 stage + 1 mM hydrogen peroxide, D5: drought from R1 till R2 stage + 5 mM hydrogen peroxide, D10: drought from R1 till R2 stage + 10 mM hydrogen peroxide.

From: Elevated tolerance of both short-term and continuous drought stress during reproductive stages by exogenous application of hydrogen peroxide on soybean
