Compositions and methods for indirectly reducing incidence of fungal pathogen infection in a plant are disclosed, wherein the fungal pathogen may be Botrytis, Macrophomina, Rhizoctonia, Sclerotinia, or Verticillium. The compositions comprise pasteurized microalgae cells in an amount effective to reduce incidence of the fungal pathogen in a plant compared to a substantially identical population of untreated plants. The composition treatment can include at least one microalgae such as Aurantiochytrium, Galdieria, Scenedesmus, Haematococcus, Isochrysis, Spirulina or any combination thereof.

The present invention refers to a composition based on algal and/or plant extracts and its use in agriculture to improve water use efficiency and/or water productivity in plants and/or agricultural water management thus resulting in increased yield of crop plants per unit water used.

The invention relates to compositions and methods for improving characteristics of plants and soil by administering an effective amount of a microalgae-based composition in low concentration applications.

Provided is a technology for conferring enhanced tolerance and/or enhancing tolerance to a herbicide of a plant and/or algae by using amino acid variants of protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase derived from prokaryotes.

One or more compositions and methods for applying compositions, for improving characteristics of plants and soil are disclosed. The methods can be utilized by administering an effective amount of a macroalgal based composition (e.g., algal composition), such as comprising an extract of the biomass of an algae. Low concentration of the composition may be used for the application, to provide effective results.
