Technical biofertiliser potential in EU-28

open access: yes
Report on the model developed for the assessment of potential biofertiliser production from local, unused waste streams. This model will combine results from the RUSTICA lab integration, pilot demonstrators and open-source ...

EFFECT OF A BIOFERTILISER ON THE GROWTH OF POINSETTIA

Acta Horticulturae, 2008
The experiment was aimed to evaluate the effect of a biofertiliser containing the purple nonsulfur anoxygenic phototrophic bacterium Rhodobacter capsulatus (Ores, PSBIO System, Italy) on the growth of two poinsettia cultivars, ‘Peterstar’ and ‘Maren’, in comparison with the usual nitrogen fertigation. The plants were grown in a PMMA covered greenhouse,

Efficacy of root litter as a biofertiliser

Biology and Fertility of Soils, 1994
The efficacy ofLeucaena leucocephala root litter as a natural biological fertiliser was assessed usingZea mays as a test plant. Up to 8% of the fine roots of the plants constituted root litter. This fine root litter was better than that ofTrigonella foenum-graecum at increasing the growth and productivity ofZea mays.

Utilisation of blue-green algae as biofertilisers

Plant and Soil, 1979
Biologically active compounds may be liberated from blue-green algae growing on the surface of moist soils. Such compounds may also be released as exudates from algae grown in liquid culture.

Biofertilisers in action

Australian Journal of Plant Physiology, 2001
This paper originates from an address at the 8th International Symposium on Nitrogen Fixation with Non-Legumes, Sydney, NSW, December 2000 Currently proposed means of entry of bacterial endophytes into roots of field-grown crop plants, as well as niches available for their successful colonization of living tissues, are evaluated from ...

ALGAL BIOFERTILISERS FOR RICE IN JAMAICA

1988
Two species of nitrogen-fixing blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) have been isolated from local freshwater sources and fields. These were Anabaena variabilis and Nostoc sp. Experiments were carried out to propagate these on a large scale under field conditions, suitable for the use of small farmers.

Dead fine roots — a neglected biofertiliser

1993
Efficacy of dead Leucaena roots as a natural biological fertiliser was assessed using Zea mays as a bioassay plant. In the case of Leucaena leucocephala, up to 8% of the fine roots recovered at any time were dead. Decomposed fine roots of Leucaena leucocephala were better than those of Trigonella foenum-graecum in increasing growth and productivity of ...
