| Research Abstract |
Effects of plant minerals derived from fossil plants on plant growth, sugar content,polyphenol content, anti-oxidative capacity, and mineral content were studied. As the result, 0.5% fulvic acid at pH4 applied during 2 weeks before harvest could effectivelypromote sugars and functional substances while plant growth was inhibited. Therefore,treatments lower than 0.5% fulvic acid and/or shorter treatment period would be promisingtechniques for the commercial production.
