Abstract:Biostimulants improve the absorption and assimilation of nutrients by plants, making them more tolerant to biotic or abiotic stress, improving their agronomic characteristics. Natural and biodegradable biostimulants such as chitosan have fungal and bactericidal activities and promote growth and crop yield, this is why, to evaluate the effect of chitosan application on growth and productive parameters of broccoli (Brassica oleracea L.), three concentrations of chitosan (T1 = 500 mg.L-1; T2 = 1000 mg.L-1; and T3… Show more
