Foliar Applications of Protein Hydrolysate, Plant and Seaweed Extracts Increase Yield but Differentially Modulate Fruit Quality of Greenhouse Tomato (2017, background): “The increased mineral concentration in fruit of treated plants may also be due to a greater absorption of minerals through a stimulation of root growth and the activity of nutrient transporters in cell membranes (Billard et al., 2014; Colla et al., 2014).”
Biostimulants in Plant Science: A Global Perspective (2017, background): “Seaweed-based preparations as biostimulants are described in reviews by Crouch and van Staden (1993a), Khan et al. (2009), Craigie (2011), Sharma et al. (2014); and experimental papers by Goatley and Schmidt (1991), Jannin et al. (2013), Billard et al. (2014), Aremu et al. (2015b).”
Root morphological and molecular responses induced by microalgae extracts in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) (2018, background): “In Brassica napus L., Ascophillum nodosum extracts have been tested revealing a biostimulant activity on plant growth, nutrient uptake, and translocation, without changing the mineral composition of the nutrient solution (Billard et al. 2014).”
