Gaseous hydrogen (H2) has emerged as a molecule that has a significant influence on the growth and development of plants, particularly if they are under stress. Often research has shown the ameliorating effects of H2 during drought, in the presence of heavy metals or salt, or during UV light irradiation. Postharvest, H2 has been shown to increase the quality of fruits and vegetables during storage
