“…Among them, A. nodosum is probably the most common species. Although its biomass has been long used as fertilizer, studies carried out with commercial formulations containing A. nodosum extracts proved that they act as enhancers of growth, yield, quality, and adaptation to stress in salinized lettuce ( Lactuca sativa ), thale cress ( Arabidopsis thaliana) , tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ), passion fruit ( Passiflora edulis ), and avocado ( Persea americana ) [ 108 , 114 , 116 , 117 , 131 , 132 , 133 , 134 ]. Several studies have been carried out in soil, thus making it difficult to entangle the direct (e.g., nutritional and biostimulatory activities) and indirect (e.g., manurial effect) impact on crops.…”
