Effects of Liquid Organic Fertilizers on Plant Growth and Rhizosphere Soil Characteristics of Chrysanthemum

Abstract: Abstract:Organic fertilizers are generally thought to be an effective way to sustain soil fertility and plant growth. To promote the productivity of chrysanthemum, five sources of liquid organic fertilizers (L1-L5), as well as a chemical fertilizer, were applied at an early stage of the growth cycle to investigate their effects on plant growth. In the short-term pot experiment, the liquid organic fertilizers significantly promoted root and aboveground growth by 10.2-77.8% and 10.7-33.3%, respectively, compared… Show more

“…The applications of liquid organic fertilizers may significantly improve the nutrient level, i.e. mineral N, available P, and available K contents (Ji et al 2017) attributed to the improved diversity of the microbial community, which enhances the nutrient cycle in the soil (Lee et al 2004;Zhu et al 2013). Even though the diameter growth rate response of A. cadamba seedlings to application of 100% biochar treatment alone was less pronounced, the enrichment of nutrients into biochar gave tremendous improvement in diameter growth rate of seedlings.…”

“…For example, soil application of a commercial seaweed extract based on alginate on Chrysanthemum plants increased significantly rhizospheric-available P by 49% in comparison with the control. However, the soil microbial community was not affected [63]. In the same context, Renaut et al [64] investigated the effect of a commercial seaweed extract based on Ascophyllum Nodosum on the soil and root microbiome diversity of pepper plants.…”

“…Therefore, to support the success of cultivation in regosol soil, it is necessary to improve its physical, chemical and biological properties. Organic fertilizers can significantly improve the development and growth of plants, compared to inorganic fertilizers (Ji et al, 2017). Yang et al (2016) have noted that manure is an important source of nutrients because it has higher N and P content than other manure.…”
