Pre- and probiotic biostimulants for improving Nutrient Use Efficiency

The inefficient application of synthetic nitrogen (N) fertilizers has led to significant environmental pollution. Biostimulants offer a promising approach to mitigate issues related to N fertilization. This study aims to evaluate the impact of two biostimulants—a prebiotic and a probiotic—in compensating for deficient N fertilization. Specifically, we examined Terramin® Pro, based on L-α-amino acids and other biomolecules, and Terra Sorb® Symbiotic, combining L-α-amino acids and ...

Lettuce Soil Microbiome Modulated by an L-α-Amino Acid-Based Biostimulant

Maintenance of soil health is of foremost importance to sustain and increase crop productivity, while meeting the demand of a rising global population. Soil microbiome is gaining increasing attention as a modulator of soil health. Microbial communities confer traits to the soil as a living organism, which functions holistically and conforms part of the plant holobiont, reassembling the human-gut axis. Novel strategies in biostimulant development advocate for modulation of the native soil mic...

How Terramin® Pro, an L-α-amino acid-based biostimulant, modulates soil microbiome improving plant growth in challenging conditions

• Soil microbiome is gaining increasing attention as a modulator of soil health.
• Improving crop yield using sustainable biostimulants is an appealing alternative to chemical synthetic fertilizers.
• Novel strategies in biostimulant development advocate for the modulation of soil native microbio...
