Effect of algalization on seed germination of vegetable crops.

Abstract:

:Soaking seeds of cucumber and pumpkin with an extract of Westiellopsis prolifica, an N2-fixing cyanobacterium, promoted germination and their subsequent growth and development. An extract of Lyngbya sp., a non-N2-fixing cyanobacterium, had no significant effect.
