“…Furthermore, no differences were found (p > 0.05) in RGR values in lettuce for the treatments with different pellets and doses. These results are consistent with those obtained by Hernández-Herrera et al (2014), who reported an increased growth in lettuce plants using liquid extracts of U. lactuca and Padina gymnospora (Kützing) Sonder.…”

The need to reduce the use of traditional fertilizers and prevent soil degradation demands the search for new ways of fertilization. The combined application of waste materials (generated by the paper industry) and seaweed may be an alternative source of fertilization. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of pellets made of waste materials ash and sludge, produced by the paper industry with the addition of seaweed (Ulva lactuca L.) on the production of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) as an indicator plant and N mineralization in the soil. Two trials were conducted on an Entisol soil. The first trial evaluated the productive response of lettuce to the combined application of pellet+seaweed. Lettuce plants were grown in pots under greenhouse conditions for 3-mo. Three types of pellets, with and without seaweed added, were applied in doses of 10, 20, and 30 t ha . N mineralization was measured by 12 wk incubation, evaluating the three types of pellets with and without the addition of seaweed. The results showed that all the combined pellet+seaweed treatments had higher aerial biomass production (p ≤ 0.05) and increased chlorophyll content. The aerial biomass production reached 4.16 g pot -1 and was 7-fold higher than pellet treatments without seaweed, while chlorophyll content was 17% higher (p ≤ 0.05). In terms of N mineralization, the maximum release was recorded in the Pellet 3+seaweed treatment, reaching 55 mg kg -1 . All the treatments with seaweed (p ≤ 0.05) better higher N mineralization values compared to the treatments without seaweed. Similarly, increased values for potentially mineralizable N and mineralization rate constant were observed in the treatments that included pellets+seaweed and seaweed alone compared to those consisting of pellets alone. The pellets+seaweed amendments resulted in an increase in soil N mineralization and production parameters of lettuce.

“…One of the alternatives that has the interest of both researchers and agronomic producers is the extract from sea algae, being one of the reasons that these grow fast, produce a great biomass volume and are a source of many substances with biologic activity (Bettiol, 2006) and in this way, Zermeño-González et al (2015) highlighted that the use of sea algae extracts as biofertilizers to the soil and foliage increases the performance and quality of different crops, this is related to the photosynthesis rate of the plants. Also, it has been put into view that these extracts contains nutritious macro and micro elements, organic compounds such as auxin and gibberellins that favor plant growth besides increasing crop yield and plant vigour against adverse environmental effects (Arun et al, 2014;Aymen et al, 2014), for these reasons, these biofertilizers, applied to the soil or foliage, could be used with the purpose of replacing, totally or partially, conventional fertilizers (Hernández-Herrera et al, 2014). Because of the above mentioned, the effect of liquid organic sea originated fertilizers, Acadian Soil and Acadian Foliage (Stimplex®), upon nutritional value of forage maize during springsummer 2015 cycle was evaluated.…”

The research was conducted on a commercial land plot from the ejido Granada, municipality of Matamoros, Coahuila, situated inside the Comarca Lagunera, from April to August 2015, in order to establish the effect of two fertilization sources -organic and inorganic, upon the nutritional quality of forage maize during the spring-summer cycle with a randomized block experimental design. T1= Acadian soil +Acadian foliage (marine algae extracts) and T2= Regional control, with 16 replications. The evaluated variables were the nutritional quality of forage maize and the milk production (L•t -1 dry matter and L•ha -1 ). Due to the effect of the evaluated treatments, statistical differences were registered, both for, nutritional values of forage maize, such as: neutral and acid detergent fiber, non-fiber carbohydrates, total digestible nutrients, total net energy for lactation and for milk production, in favor of organic fertilization. Therefore, it can be concluded that fertilizers of marine origin applied to forage maize increased both nutritional quality of forage maize and milk yield per ton of dry matter and per hectare of this forage.

“…While Rajarajan et al (2014), have stated that seaweed treatments increase the plant height, Herrera et al (2013), has reported that zeatin content of the seaweed promote rooting. Matysiak et al (2011), reported that biologically active alginic acids, polyphenols, free amino acids and natural phytohormones (auxin and cytokine) found in seaweed increase the rooting and growing.…”

This research was conducted to determine the effects of different seaweed doses on yield and nutritional values of hydroponic wheatgrass (Triticum aestivum L.) juice in the climatization chamber of Karabuk University, Eskipazar Vocational School, Department of Crop and Animal Production between the dates of 15. 01.2015 and 15.06.2015. In the research, four different seaweed doses (Control; 0, D1; 150, D2; 300, D3; 450 and D4; 600 ppm) and control were applied to irrigation water and their effects on the content of biomass rate, biomass and grass yield, grass juice yield and pH, plant height and root length, biomass and grass dry matter rate, grass juice energy and macronutrient values (protein, carbohydrate, fat, dietary fiber and ash) were analysed. According to the results, while the highest biomass and grass yield, plant height values were obtained from D1, D2, D3 and D4 treatments, the highest grass juice yield and root length were obtained from D3 treatment. The highest pH, grass dry matter content was obtained from control treatment. Seaweed dose treatments were not had influence on grass juice energy values. However, the rise in the grass juice yield was caused a rise in the total energy values in the unit area. D3 treatments can be recommendable to achieve the highest grass juice yield.
