A steroidal plant growth regulator promotes season-dependent growth responses in Psidium genotypes
• Biobrás-16 accelerates the growth of Psidium seedlings under nursery conditions. • Biobrás-16 increases root area and volume. • The response of Psidium to Biobrás-16 is genotype-dependent. • Leaf pigment indices indicate stress mitigation with Biobrás-16.
