Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims at establishment of technology for greatly promoting plant growth in greenhouses by supplying gases including CO2 and other volatile substances produced from aerobic fermentation of biomass. This study demonstrated that the growth of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings was significantly promoted by the gases produced from aerobic fermentation of Larch shavings mixed with the fermented chiken manure and some microorganism sources. Also, it has been found that the growth-promoting effect depends upon the kind of microorganism source used, and it was indicated that volatile substances other than CO2 contributed to the plant growth promotion.
