Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for packaging a compressible product in a compressed state, comprising the step of sealing at least two parts of a polymeric machine direction oriented (MDO) film which encloses at least part of the compressible product in the compressed state, characterized in that the seal has a seal elongation at failure of about 20% to about 100%, as measured in accordance with ASTM F88/F88M-09. The present invention also relates to a compressible product in a compressed state packaged in a polymeric MDO film which encloses at least part of the compressible product, wherein at least two parts of the MDO film are sealed and characterized in that the seal has a seal elongation at failure of about 20% to about 100%, as measured in accordance with ASTM F88/F88M-09.

Abstract: The invention related to the use of oligo-apiogalacturonan compounds, particularly extracted from aquatic plants of the Lemna or Zostera Genus, as an agent for stimulating the defence and resistance reactions in a plant, in particular an ornamental plant or a plant of agricultural interest, against biotic an/or abiotic stresses. The invention further relates to a method for stimulating the natural defence reactions of a plant or a portion or a plant against biotic and/or abiotic stresses that includes applying at least one oligo-apiogalacturonan compound in a liquid or solid composition on said plant or a portion of a plant or in the environment of said plant.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of dry and compacted aquatic grasses containing zosteric acid and/or zosterin, as a support for soil-less cultivation. It also relates to a support for cultivation consisting at least in part of such aquatic grasses.
