Abstract:

We expect to improve overall health, increase yields and disease resistance, and reduce the use of water and conventional pesticides during cultivation. Sub-objectives: 1) Identification of suitable microalgae strains with known biostimulatory effects and at the same time viable biotechnological production of biomass and/or extracellular bioactive compounds 2) Formulation and optimization of the formulation (identification of appropriate concentration and dose of the bioactive component, method and timing of application, setting of appropriate physicochemical properties and ensuring shelf life) 3) Verification of the effects of the formulation through in vitro and in vivo tests on selected important agricultural crops – legumes.
