This study was carried out to investigate the impacts of cyanobacteria ( sp.) high-value product extract (HVPE) and water resuspended biomass WRB treatments on bell pepper production using the hydroponic system under greenhouse conditions. Six cyanobacteria treatments (6 ml L, 4 ml L, and 2 ml L - HVPE, 6 ml L, 4 ml L, and 2 ml L - WRB, and TR0 as control) were evaluated using the foliar application method.

Unfortunately, there are few known methods to mitigate the deleterious impacts of salt stress on the development and yield of vegetable crops. Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) are endowed with the potential to curb the negative impacts of salt stress as they are characterized by biostimulant properties.
