Effects of a Biostimulant on the Heat Tolerance Associated with Photosynthetic Capacity, Membrane Thermostability, and Polyphenol Production of Perennial Ryegrass
January 2007
Scientific articles | Terra-Sorb®
Physiological responses of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) treated with or without Macro-Sorb Foliar (FOLIAR) and subjected to optimal growing conditions or high air temperature stress (20, 28, and 36ºC) were investigated in vivo using three separate growth chamber experiments

Diptera: Tephritidae is one of the most destructive agricultural pests in citrus and fruit trees worldwide particularly in temperate and hot growing areas. In Spain, the total affected surface is over 300.000 ha. including citrus, fruit trees, table grapes and even vegetables like peppers in integrated pest management (IPM) programs. Currently, medfly common control strategies to avoid fruit damage are based on several applications of pesticides with low efficiency results. These crops produ...
Micronutrients With Amino Acids to Overcome Stress Due to Nutritional Deficiencies
January 2006
Scientific articles | AminoQuelant®
Micronutrient deficiency leads to internal physiological disorders in the plant, limiting growth and production in the affected crops. The application of micronutrients with amino acids provides the missing element and re-establishes the physiological balance due to the biostimulant properties of the amino acids; this allows the plant to begin to assimilate the nutrients more quickly and to reactivate the affected metabolic processes
Growth Regulator Activity of Macro-Sorb® Foliar in Vitro
October 2005
Scientific articles | Terra-Sorb®
In vitro growth responses elicited by separated fractions of Macro-Sorb Foliar© (FOLIAR), a common biostimulant applied to golf course turfgrasses, were investigated using two bioassays specific and sensitive to auxin or cytokinin. Auxin responses were tested using the Avena (oat) first internode straight growth bioassay using increasing concentrations of indole-3-acetic acid as an internal standard. Cytokinin responses were tested using the Raphanus (radish) cotyledon expansion bioassay, w...
