Changes in Biochemistry and Yield in Response to Biostimulants Applied in Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Biostimulants are preparations that favorably impact the growth, development, and yield of plants. The research objective was to examine the effect of the frequency of use of Kelpak, Terra Sorb Complex and Fylloton biostimulants on improving the yield ...

Tapping into the maize root microbiome to identify bacteria that promote growth under chilling conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background When maize (Zea mays L.) is grown in the Northern hemisphere, its development is heavily arrested by chilling temperatures, especially at the juvenile phase. As some endophytes are beneficial for plants under stress conditions, we analyzed the

Climate change and crop resilience: harnessing metabolomics for predicting stress tolerance

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summarised methodology for metabolite biomarker discovery and genomic targets selection for those metabolites to predict high‐throughput phenotypic and agronomic traits of interest for direct uptake in breeding programmes. Summary Global warming is driving climate change to levels not experienced since the advent of agriculture, primarily due to ...

Biostimulant or biological? The complexity of defining, categorizing, and regulating microbial inoculants

open access: yesAgricultural & Environmental Letters
Agronomic use of specialty products known as biostimulants to improve crop productivity is growing. Traditionally, biostimulants are defined as any substance or microorganism applied to plants to enhance nutrient use efficiency, tolerance to abiotic ...

Gallic Acid‐Responsive microRNAs Reprogram Lignification During Drought Acclimation Process in Spearmint

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mentha spicata L. (spearmint) is a high‐value aromatic and medicinal species, whose productivity is strongly affected by water deficit. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying drought acclimation in this mint remain largely unexplored. Thus, here, we investigated the microRNA‐mediated regulatory processes triggered in M.

Integrated Approach of Using Biostimulants for Improving Growth, Physiological Traits, and Tolerance to Abiotic Stressors in Rice and Soybean

open access: yesAgronomy
Abiotic stressors such as drought, salinity, waterlogging, and high and low temperatures significantly reduce the growth and productivity of rice (Oryza sativa) and soybean (Glycine max), which are vital for global food and nutritional security.

Vermicompost biostimulants: nutrients and auxin for root growth. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The present study was undertaken to establish if biostimulants diferently extracted from vermicompost causes root development and how mineral nutrients and plant growth substances are associated to diferent extraction ...

Systemic Delivery of Functional Proteins Into Plants Using an Engineered Membrane Translocation Domain

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Protein‐based biopesticides and biostimulants are critical for the future of sustainable agriculture, yet their utility is severely limited by inefficient delivery into plant cells. Traditional cell‐penetrating peptides enable protein uptake but lack the efficiency, systemic activity and scalability required for crop production.

Distinct Foliar Uptake Pathways for Phosphorus and Nano‐Hydroxyapatite in Potato Revealed By Synchrotron μCT and ³³P Imaging

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) has a high phosphorus (P) requirement, yet its shallow root system and the strong P‐fixing capacity of many soils limit the effectiveness of soil fertilisation. Foliar application of nano‐hydroxyapatite particles (nHAPs) has emerged as a promising alternative P fertilisation practice.

Influence of biostimulants on phenolic content in broccoli heads directly after harvest and after storage

open access: yesFolia Horticulturae, 2017
Biostimulants are commonly used in horticulture, primarily to increase yield quantity and quality, as well as plant tolerance to stress. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of amino acid-based biostimulants and amino acids in combination
