A Biostimulant Based on Seaweed (Ascophyllum nodosum and Laminaria digitata) and Yeast Extracts Mitigates Water Stress Effects on Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) (2021, background): “On the one hand, seaweed extracts are among the most common substances used as biostimulants and they might play a role in counteracting drought stress [35].”
Biostimulants Application in Horticultural Crops under Abiotic Stress Conditions (2019, background): “They also contain many active mineral and organic compounds, including complex polysaccharides such as laminarin, fucoidan, alginates and plant hormones that contribute to plant growth [77].”
Plant Biostimulants: Importance of the Quality and Yield of Horticultural Crops and the Improvement of Plant Tolerance to Abiotic Stress—A Review (2019, methodology): “Agro-technical measures such as ploughing are used to mix biomass or meal with the topsoil [12].”
Ascophyllum nodosum-based algal extracts act as enhancers of growth, fruit quality, and adaptation to stress in salinized tomato plants (2018, background): “…of University of Campania BLuigi Vanvitelli^, Caserta, Italy tolerance have been clearly demonstrated, while complex mixtures (Rayorath et al. 2008; Battacharyya et al. 2015) or living microorganisms (Ahmad et al. 2008; Siddiqui et al. 2008) represent a more complex and challenging system to study.”
The Use of a Plant-Based Biostimulant Improves Plant Performances and Fruit Quality in Tomato Plants Grown at Elevated Temperatures (2020, background): “For example, it has been demonstrated that applications of algal extracts are able to promote tolerance to drought, salinity, and heat, while extracts rich in amino acids can help increasing tolerance to thermal stresses [16,17].”
Effect of Seaweed Extract on Productivity and Quality Attributes of Four Onion Cultivars (2020, background): “Biostimulant benefits have been mainly attributed to the presence of phytohormones and organic molecules [18] such as betaines [18,19].”
Appraisal of Biodegradable Mulching Films and Vegetal-Derived Biostimulant Application as Eco-Sustainable Practices for Enhancing Lettuce Crop Performance and Nutritive Value (2020, background): “, small peptides and free amino acids) can influence both primary and secondary metabolism in plants, by stimulating glycolysis enzymes’ activity, Krebs’ cycle, and nitrates’ assimilation [13,14].”
Microalgal Biostimulants and Biofertilisers in Crop Productions (2019, background): “[166] reported that nutrients available in the microalgal extracts are readily absorbed by the leaf through its stomata and cuticle pores, showing the best effectiveness if applied in the morning, when stomata pores are completely open.”
Plant- and Seaweed-Based Extracts Increase Yield but Differentially Modulate Nutritional Quality of Greenhouse Spinach through Biostimulant Action (2018, background): “The main components of commercial PHs are a mixture of free amino acids, oligo- and polypeptides sourced from animal or plant origins [11]; whereas commercial SWE, in particular the brown macro-algae (Ascophyllum nodosum and Ecklonia maxima), are important sources of polysaccharides (alginates, fuco”
Effect of microalgae hydrolysate foliar application (Arthrospira platensis and Scenedesmus sp.) on Petunia x hybrida growth (2018, background): “The nutrients present in the seaweed extracts are readily absorbed by leaves through stomata and cuticle hydrophilic pores (Battacharyya et al. 2015).”
Effect of Vegetal- and Seaweed Extract-Based Biostimulants on Agronomical and Leaf Quality Traits of Plastic Tunnel-Grown Baby Lettuce under Four Regimes of Nitrogen Fertilization (2019, background): “In addition to direct mechanisms, indirect modes of actions on agronomical performance and nutrient uptake and assimilation have been also reported when vegetal- or seaweed extract-based biostimulants were applied as substrate drench and/or foliar spray [8,29].”
Effect of Ecklonia maxima seaweed extract on yield, mineral composition, gas exchange, and leaf anatomy of zucchini squash grown under saline conditions (2017, background): “They are available in soluble powder form or as liquid extracts and may be side-dressed near the root of the plant or applied as foliar sprays (Battacharyya et al. 2015).”
Effect of seaweed liquid extracts from Ulva lactuca on seedling growth of mung bean (Vigna radiata) (2017, background): “photosynthetic pigments (Battacharyya et al. 2015), and enhancing stress resistance (Mansori et al.”
