Elicitor Mixtures Significantly Increase Bioactive Compounds, Antioxidant Activity, and Quality Parameters in Sweet Bell Pepper

Table 1

Flavonoids, condensed tannins, and carotenoids composition of sweet bell pepper as a result of MIF application.

MIF application	Flavonoids (µg of F·g^−1)	Condensed tannins (mg of CT·g^−1)	Carotenoids (mg TC·100 g^−1)
Control	279.00 ± 8.66	5.05 ± 0.11	33.09 ± 2.24
Foliar	276.60 ± 9.43	5.16 ± 0.13	22.99 ± 2.40
Whole plant	244.60 ± 14.99	4.60 ± 0.41	21.40 ± 4.63
Immature fruit	168.80 ± 8.98	0.47 ± 0.12	7.05 ± 2.20
Mature fruit	441.14 ± 16.95	9.32 ± 0.44	44.42 ± 5.00

Each value is the mean of three replicates ± standard error. Different letters in each column express significant difference P ≤ 0.05 by Tukey’s test.
