Potential Use of <i>Ascophyllum nodosum</i> as a Biostimulant for Improving the Growth Performance of <i>Vigna aconitifolia</i> (Jacq.) Marechal
The fertilizers that are derived from seaweed are known as Seaweed Liquid Fertilizers (SLF). SLF is a modern, cheap, non-toxic, and natural bioactive fertilizer. Among different studied seaweeds, <i>Ascophyllum nodosum</i> is significant as having bioactive ingredients that potentially r...
