The complexity of humic substances (HS) and their remarkable properties in agricultural
applications has attracted and continue to attain the attention of many investigators, bringing …

Some effects of humic acids, formed during the breakdown of organic wastes by earthworms
(vermicomposting), on plant growth were evaluated. In the first experiment, humic acids …

In the 26áyears since the third edition of the Biology and Ecology of Earthworms was
published, there has been an enormous expansion of interest and research in earthworms …

Earthworms (Eisenia foetida) produce humic substances that can influence plant growth by
mechanisms that are not yet clear. In this work, we investigated the effects of humic acids …

Vermicomposts, produced commercially from food wastes, were substituted at a range of
different concentrations into a soil-less commercial bedding plant container medium, Metro …

The effect of varying humic acid supplies (0, 0.05 and 0.1% w/w) on some agro-
physiological properties and ionic balance of bean plants in different salt source and doses …

Drought continues to be a major limiting factor for creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris
Huds. A.) quality and persistence on golf course fairways, greens, and tees. Little breeding …

Increasing evidences have indicated that humic substances can induce plant growth and
productivity by functioning as an environmental source of auxinic activity. Here we …

Recognition of the importance of soil organic matter (SOM) in soil health and quality is a
major part of fostering a holistic, preventive approach to agricultural management. Students …
