Abstract

Biostimulants and biofertilizers based on macro- and microalgae have managed to establish themselves as an actual replacement for toxic substances, demonstrating high efficiency on plants of various taxonomic groups. There is an unique organic product chlorella (Chlorella vulgaris), a green microalgae containing more than 650 substances, which creates the prerequisites for its effective use as a substrate for the propagation of cultures in vitro. A method has been developed for propagating plants of different taxonomic groups in vitro. It has been shown that there is a difference in the perception of chlorella as a source of nutrients depending on the taxonomy group of plants.
