The seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum-based biostimulant enhances salt stress tolerance in rice (Oryza sativa L.) by remodeling physiological, biochemical, and metabolic responses

ABSTRACTThis study explores the role of a biostimulant derived from the seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum (AN) in mitigating salt stress in rice plants. The weekly (S+W) and biweekly (S+B) biostimulant treatments exhibited enhanced shoot and root biomass, maintained ionic balance, and increased pigment co...
