Probably, humic substances may act on plant development through an action on the hormonal balance within the plant, either directly or indirectly by affecting the root uptake of some nutrients.
Gibberellins have many effects on plant development.
Whilst, nutrient deficiency can have a significant impact on plant development, resulting in reduced plant quality or reduced pollen production.
Some studies reported successful reductions in RKN populations and positive effects on plant development (Grewal et al., 1999; Kepenekci et al., 2015).
Graphical abstract The study reviews recent research activities exploring synthesis of carbon nanomaterials, their potential applications and impacts on plant development.
This leads to uncertainties because the evapotranspiration for grassland can differ from agricultural sites depending on plant development stage and crop species.
Similarly, the effects of fungal VOCs on plant development have been demonstrated in several plants in Brassicaceae family including radish, cabbage, rape, and broccoli (Ogura et al. [2000]).
The ability to match observed seasonal and inter-annual variability of Pg improved by taking into account antecedent effects of cumulative heat on plant development.
However, the OsGS1 1 gene has pleiotropic effects on plant development, including plant height, leaf blade length, panicle size, and grain filling [70], whereas the maize Gln1-4 gene is specifically involved in kernel development [49].
As well known, the positive effects of N on plant development are due to its function on the roots and shoots growth, composing protein, enzymes, coenzymes, nucleic acids, phytochromes, photosynthetic pigments, etc.
Besides that, there exist some factors that also influence the intensity of HS-IE and HS-DE on plant development, which might be classified as intrinsic (those factors related to HS intrinsic physicochemical properties: structure-conformation, size distribution, etc).
