Abstract:The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of three microalgae strains, Chlorella vulgaris, Scenedesmus quadricauda, and Klebsormidium sp. K39, on the enhancement of lettuce yield and soil fertility and in mitigation of nitrogen losses in groundwater, focusing on some aspects of the complex soil-plant system. The experimental trials were carried in pots, and involved the application of microalgae cells at two different concentrations (50 and 500 mg kg− 1 of soil), alone or in combination wit… Show more
