Discussion

Randomized trial improved yield metrics in lettuce cultivation with microbial biostimulants, suggesting greater fertilizer efficiency.

T6, combining PPMs with reduced fertilizer, increased plant weight by 152% compared to the control.
Chlorophyll content peaked at 27.5% and 29.4% in treatments with microalgae and PGPRs, respectively.
The trial showed a significant biomass increase of 78% with PPMs over standard fertilizer use.
Microbial biostimulants demonstrated potential for promoting sustainable agriculture by enhancing growth and efficiency.

ŞEN et al. (2025) studied this question.
