Evaluating the impact of Acanthophora spicifera and Gracilaria edulis extracts on the enhanced growth of selected microgreens and their bioactive metabolite profiles
Seaweed-derived bio-stimulants are increasingly explored as a sustainable strategy to enhance the nutraceutical quality of functional foods such as microgreens. This study evaluated the effect of foliar-applied Acanthophora spicifera and Gracilaria edulis extracts (0.5% w/v) on the growth and bioactive metabolite profi...
