Plant nutrition through mineral fertilizers is commonly used in soilless culture systems. Our study aims to replace intensive with bio-fertilizers, at least partially. We supplemented 50% of the Chlorella vulgaris microalgae, a mix beneficial bacteria and mycorrhiza. In addition, we investigated how enhance spinach quality by implementing sustainable eco-friendly production method. research foc...

We here demonstrate by compartmentation analysis of leaf mesophyll protoplasts that raffinose is clearly (to about 20%) present in chloroplasts of cold-treated common bugle (Aju...
