Front Cover -- Biostimulants for Crops from Seed Germination to Plant Development -- Biostimulants for Crops from Seed Germination to Plant DevelopmentA Practical ApproachEdited byShubhpriya GuptaJohannes Van ... -- Copyright -- Contents -- Contributors -- Contributors -- Preface -- 1 -- Categories of various plant biostimulants -- mode of application and shelf-life -- Introduction -- Categories of biostimulants -- Humic substances -- Protein hydrolysates -- Extracts of seaweeds -- Microalgae -- Plant-derived smoke, smoke-water, and smoke compounds -- Vermicompost -- Microbial biostimulants

Biostimulants for crops from seed germination to plant development focuses on the effects and roles of natural biostimulants in every aspect of plant growth development to reduce the use of harmful chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Biostimulants are a group of substances of natural origin that offer a potential to reduce the dependency on harmful chemical fertilizers causing environmental degradation. While there is extensive literature on biostimulants, there remains a gap in understanding how natural biostimulants work and their practical application. This book fills that gap, presenting the ways in which biostimulants enhance seed vigor and plant productivity by looking into their mode of action, an area still being researched for deeper understanding. Exploring the roles of seed germination, pollen tube formation, pollen-pistil interaction, flower and fruit setting, to plant pigments, rhizospheric and soil microorganisms, the book also sheds light on the challenges and realistic opportunities for the use of natural biostimulants.
