| description | Many studies have shown that the addition of vermicompost to plant growing media has beneficial effects on growth and development of a wide range of plant species. Some of the proposed mechanisms involved in this growth stimulation are: nutrient release, enhancement of physical properties of the substrates and inoculation of beneficial microorganisms with the ability to increase the solubility of essential nutrients for plant growth and produce plant growth promoting substances. In the last years research efforts have been centered in the investigation of these hormonal effects and, more precisely, on the role of humic substances as carriers of these plant growth regulating substances (PGRs). However, the existence of conflicting results in the literature evidences the need for new research lines and definition of a clear and objective concept of vermicompost. |

Many studies have shown that the addition of vermicompost to plant growing media has beneficial effects on growth and development of a wide range of plant species. Some of the proposed mechanisms involved in this growth stimulation are: nutrient release, enhancement of physical properties of the substrates and inoculation of beneficial microorganisms with the ability to increase the solubility of essential nutrients for plant growth and produce plant growth promoting substances. In the last years research efforts have been centered in the investigation of these hormonal effects and, more precisely, on the role of humic substances as carriers of these plant growth regulating substances (PGRs).

Numerosos estudios han demostrado que la adición de humus de lombriz a los sustratos de cultivo tiene efectos beneficiosos sobre el crecimiento y desarrollo de gran cantidad de especies vegetales. Los mecanismos a través de los que se produce esta estimulación incluyen el aporte de nutrientes, la mejora de las propiedades físicas del sustrato y el aporte de microorganismos beneficiosos para el desarrollo vegetal capaces de aumentar la disponibilidad de nutrientes y producir sustancias con efectos fitohormonales. En los últimos años se ha dedicado un importante esfuerzo a la investigación de estos efectos hormonales, y más concretamente al papel de las sustancias húmicas como portadoras de sustancias reguladoras del crecimiento vegetal (PGRs). Sin embargo, la existencia de efectos discordantes en la literatura pone de manifiesto la necesidad de abrir nuevas vías de investigación así como de definir de forma más objetiva y clara el concepto de vermicompost.
