Effects of Microbial Biostimulants on Maize and Its Pest, the Western Corn Rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera

Agronomy
The western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera, (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) is a serious pest of maize in the USA and Europe. Microbial plant biostimulants such as bacteria, fungi, and algae are designed to stimulate plant nutrition and growth,

Natural biostimulants reduce the incidence of BER in sweet yellow pepper plants (Capsicum annuum L.)

Agricultural and Food Science, 2013
Modern greenhouse pepper production should evolve towards more sustainable systems. The growing technique which combines soilless culture and biostimulants may reduce nutrient and water use with beneficial impact on the environment.
