Protein biostimulant foliar uptake modeling: The impact of climatic conditions

open access: yesAICHE Journal, 2012
Biostimulants are substances which promote plant metabolism and are able to increase yields of various crops. However, their efficiency at field can be affected by climatic conditions.

Algae biostimulants: A critical look at microalgal biostimulants for sustainable agricultural practices [PDF]

open access: possibleBiotechnology Advances, 2021
For the growing human population to be sustained during present climatic changes, enhanced quality and quantity of crops are essential to enable food security worldwide. The current consensus is that we need to make a transition from a petroleum-based to a bio-based economy via the development of a sustainable circular economy and biorefinery ...

General Principles to Justify Plant Biostimulant Claims [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
The forthcoming European Union (EU) Fertilizing Products Regulation1 proposes a claim-based definition of plant biostimulants, stipulating that “plant biostimulant” means a product stimulating plant nutrition processes independently of the product’s ...

Cerebral (Cortical) Biostimulation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 1986
Presently, stimulation of the surface of the brain in order to provide artificial vision or hearing for the blind and deaf is in its infant stages. Those observations which are accumulating now have as their aim the investigation of the feasibility of such prosthetic devices.

Biostimulants and crop responses: a review

Biological Agriculture & Horticulture, 2014
Agricultural growing practices have been evolving towards organic, sustainable or environmental friendly systems. The aim of modern agriculture is to reduce inputs without reducing the yield and quality. These goals can be achieved by breeding programmes but would be species specific and time consuming.

Biostimulation and pheromones in livestock: A review

Animal Reproduction Science, 2023
This review examines aspects of the phenomenon of biostimulation in swine, goats, sheep, cattle and deer, to improve the collective knowledge and exploitation of its relevant mechanisms and effects in animal production. The long-term goal is to implement biostimulation strategies that benefit livestock reproduction and production while being both cost ...

Hurdles to overcome to achieve biostimulant‐driven, low chemical input crop production

Plants, People, Planet
Crop production requires considerable chemical inputs that result in significant greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental costs. Biostimulants are natural agents, such as microorganisms or seaweed, applied to plants and soil to stimulate plant ...

The combination of a microbial and a non-microbial biostimulant increases yield in lettuce (Lactuca sativa) under salt stress conditions by up-regulating cytokinin biosynthesis.

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology
Salinization poses a significant challenge in agriculture, exacerbated by anthropogenic global warming. Biostimulants, derived from living microorganisms or natural extracts, have emerged as valuable tools for conventional and organic agriculture ...
