Plant biostimulants have been increasingly used in agriculture. mostly investigated regarding their stress attenuation and only a few reports brought information on effects fruit quality, which is related to appearance, chemical physical attributes. Due organic nature, they sustainable appeal, attending the demand of consumers worried about beneficial healthier foods. This review turns evident little available this matter. As fruits differentiated metabolism, from pollination harvest...
Abstract: Computerized systems for image analysis are alternatives to decrease the subjectivity and speed of assessment seed physiological potential. The aim this study was determine efficiency Seed Vigor Automated Analysis System (Vigor-S) identify differences in vigor among soybean lots compared results Imaging - SVIS® tests recommended evaluation vigor. Two cultivars were used, BMX Potência RR 7166 RSF IPRO, each one represented by ten with similar germination differences. seeds evaluated...
Algae extract biostimulants increase nutrient uptake, stress tolerance, and productivity in several crops. However, there is still a gap the knowledge of mechanisms action algae extracts on nitrogen plant metabolism. This study aimed to evaluate effect commercial Ascophyllum nodosum metabolism nodulating soybean plants their productivity. Two concentrations (0.25% 0.50%) were used, which applied via seeds leaf spray. Seeds treated at sowing, sprayed twice two vegetative phenological stages....
Protein hydrolysates are plant biostimulants containing amino acids, oligopeptides, and peptides in their composition. When supplied to plants, protein (HPs) have been identified improve nitrogen metabolism, enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes, boost defense response stresses, positively impact quantity quality products. Soybean is a crucial global commodity, with being primary nutrient for crop development as it directly affects productivity. This study aimed evaluate effect an...
ABSTRACT The study was carried out in Selvíria-MS, the 2011/12 and 2012/13 agricultural years, aiming to evaluate efficiency of Azospirillum brasilense nitrogen fixation upland rice, as a function doses application methods inoculant containing this diazotrophic bacterium. experimental design randomized blocks, arranged 4 x factorial scheme, with (control without inoculation, 100, 200 300 mL commercial product ha-1) (seed sowing furrow, soil spraying after sowing, foliar at beginning plant...

Abstract Background Plant biostimulants are organic products primarily based on algae, microorganisms, fulvic and humic acids, proteins, amino which improve physiological plant performance, leading to increased crop productivity. In this work, commercial algae extract of Ascophyllum nodosum were sprayed Sweet Heaven mini tomato variety [algae 0.5 L ha −1 (AE1) 2 (AE2); aqueous solution prepared with A. powder at 1% (w/v) (DA1) 3% (DA2)] growing under greenhouse conditions. Results Algae...
Paclobutrazol (PBZ) is a growth regulator that widely used in horticulture and the tomato seedling to compact shoots, increase stem diameter and, root biomass, allowing more tolerance of seedlings against adverse weather conditions. The objective this work was evaluate rates paclobutrazol (0, 4, 7, 10 13 mg L-1) applied 15 days after sowing by foliar spray on growth, chemical composition xylem vessel number cultivated two periods. PBZ regardless application rate reduced height both basal...
Abstract: The accelerated aging test is widely used to evaluate the vigor of soybean seeds. Currently, methodology recommended in literature set up germination at most one hour after seed process, which makes it difficult and a large number samples. aim this study was assess effect delay setting process seeds, specifically its on physiological performance. We tested three lots cultivars BRS 397, 399 RR, 1007 IPRO, 1010 388, all within standards required for commercialization. were...
