Seaweed biostimulant supplementation improves maize resilience to saline-alkaline stress

Plant Stress
Saline-alkaline stress impedes maize growth, reducing yield and quality; however, mechanisms underlying maize responses to seaweed biostimulant treatment under these conditions remain poorly understood.

Biostimulant alleviates abiotic stress of mango grown in semiarid environment [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2020
The shoot maturation phase is important for growing mango tree because it precedes the floral induction, when plants are under stress caused by high temperatures and low water availability, that could be reduced by using plant biostimulant.

Active aeration enhances tissue hydration and fresh mass in hydroponic lettuce and modulates calcium-mobilizing biostimulant efficacy [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Tipburn is a physiological disorder in lettuce (Lactuca sativa) that causes leaf margin necrosis, reducing marketability, and is exacerbated in hydroponic systems where calcium demand exceeds supply.

The Use of a Plant-Based Biostimulant Improves Plant Performances and Fruit Quality in Tomato Plants Grown at Elevated Temperatures

Agronomy, 2020
Abiotic stresses can cause a substantial decline in fruit quality due to negative impacts on plant growth, physiology and reproduction. The objective of this study was to verify if the use of a biostimulant based on plant and yeast extracts, rich in ...

A calcium-mobilizing biostimulant provides tipburn control comparable to vertical airflow fans in greenhouse hydroponic lettuce ‘Rex’ [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) tipburn is a calcium-related physiological disorder affecting young, enclosed leaves, reducing marketability. Vertical airflow fans (VAFs) effectively control tipburn in greenhouses but are limited by installation complexity ...

Reducing Nitrogen Input in Barley Crops While Maintaining Yields Using an Engineered Biostimulant Derived From Ascophyllum nodosum to Enhance Nitrogen Use Efficiency

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Intensive agricultural production utilizes large amounts of nitrogen (N) mineral fertilizers that are applied to the soil to secure high crop yields. Unfortunately, up to 65% of this N fertilizer is not taken up by crops and is lost to the environment ...
