The study demonstrates that a combination of humic materials and microbial inoculum has a significant impact on the productivity and nutritional status of lettuce plants, as well as on their primary and secondary metabolism.
Background and aims Biostimulants of natural origin represent a growing ecological strategy to increase crops productivity, especially when applied in combination with microbial bioeffectors. We studied the effect of biostimulants such as Potassium Humates (KH) from Leonardite and Compost Tea (CT) from green compost on both productivity and nutritional status of lettuce plants, as well as on the primary and secondary metabolism of treated plants, when amended either alone or in combination with a commercial microbial inoculum (M+), mainly based on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Micosat TabPlus). Results The biomass production as well as the uptake of both macro- and micronutrients by lettuce plants significantly increased when amended by the mixture of both humic materials (MIX) combined with the microbial inoculum. Similarly, the synergic MIX_M+ treatment significantly affected both the primary and secondary metabolism of lettuce more than their individual applications, by increasing, respectively, the biosynthesis of essential amino acids and carbohydrates, and that of antioxidant polyphenolic compounds, such as hydroxycinnamic acids, flavonols and coumarins. Conclusions Our findings suggest that a calibrated mixture of humic bioactive molecules in combination with microbial consortia represents a potential tool to improve crop productivity and its nutritional and metabolic status.
