Activity of seaweed extracts and polysaccharide-enriched extracts from Ulva lactuca and Padina gymnospora as growth promoters of tomato and mung bean plants (2016, background): “Some studies have reported positive effects of seaweed extracts on seed vigor as a result of priming (Moller and Smith 1998; Demir et al. 2006; Farooq et al. 2008; Rathore et al. 2009; Spinelli et al. 2010), but inhibition of germination has also been observed, highlighting the need for caution in…”
SEAWEED SAP AS AN ALTERNATIVE LIQUID FERTILIZER FOR YIELD AND QUALITY IMPROVEMENT OF WHEAT (2013, background): “Earlier studies have shown that application of seaweed extracts enhanced seed germination and seedling vigor (Kambayashi and Watanabe, 2005; Demir et al., 2006; Economou et al., 2007).”
Plant biostimulants: a review on the processing of macroalgae and use of extracts for crop management to reduce abiotic and biotic stresses (2013, background): “Seed priming studies (Table 2) have indicated enhanced seedling vigour, chlorophyll content, reduction of harmful seed microflora, increased levels of plant defence enzymes and faster emergence of aubergine, barley, cow pea, maize, peppers, sorghum, turfgrass and wheat (Burchett et al. 1998; Sivasan”
Effect of liquid seaweed extracts on growth of tomato seedlings (Solanum lycopersicum L.) (2014, background): “…studies have examined seaweed extracts on seed germination of various species such as table beet (Wilczek and Ng 1982), lettuce (Moller and Smith 1998), tomato (Demir et al. 2006), green gram (Ashok-Kumar et al. 2012), and black gram (Kalaivanan and Venkatesalu 2012; Ganapathy Selvam et al. 2013).”
The Use of Biostimulants for Enhancing Nutrient Uptake (2015, background): “SE have been shown to increase plant growth (van Staden et al., 1994), chlorophyll levels (Blunden et al., 1997), flowering and yield (Crouch et al., 1990; Eris et al., 1995), and seed germination (Demir et al., 2006; Kumar and Sahoo, 2011).”
