“…Even so, they can be clustered in three main groups according to their source and content, including amino acid containing products, hormone containing products, and humic substances (du Jardin, 2015). In this context, seaweed and plant extracts obtained under different processes have reported the presence of plant hormones such as abscisic acid (Górka & Wieczorek, 2017;Rivera et al, 2022), auxins (Górka & Wieczorek, 2017;Lema et al, 2023), cytokinins (Chóez et al, 2014;Górka & Wieczorek, 2017), gibberellins (Quijano-Avilés et al, 2018;Rivera et al, 2017Rivera et al, , 2022, among others. These natural compounds known as plant growth regulators, for example, abscisic acid (ABA), 3indolacetic acid (IAA), kinetin (KIN), trans-zeatin (tZ), gibberellic acid (GA), jasmonic acid (JA), and salicylic acid (SA) act in low concentrations in different plant physiological processes, to mediate growth development, and response to biotic and abiotic stress caused by living organisms or environmental factors such as pathogens, drought, salinity, and temperature variations (Barbosa et al, 2024;EL Sabagh et al, 2022;Guillén et al, 2022;Gupta et al, 2024;Shahzad et al, 2024).…”
