Abstract
Iran is a country with different climate conditions and rich plant flora. Besides of a long history in the use and production of medicinal plants, the report of the Iran`s medicinal plant on production and consumption is not suitable. Failure in treating many diseases, namely chronic ones, chemical medicines’ side effects and microorganisms’ increasing resistance against many medications, particularly antibiotics are reasons for considering herbal medicines. As far as medicinal plants production is concerned, true value is dedicated to the product quality and sustained production, product quantity is in second place of prominence. In such a way that suitable and right application of foods and nutrients during implant, grow, and harvest of medicinal plants not only plays a significant role in increasing the performance but is really influential on the quality and quantity of their ingredients therefore, using a suitable fertilizer is a main factor in successful planting of medicinal plants. In this regard, the application of organic acids to improve the quality and quantity of agricultural products has been widely prevalent. Among these acids, humic acid is one of the most important organic fertilizers which can positively affect plants’ growth and increases nitrogen, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus absorption by the plant. In spite of numerous studies in case of the effect of humic acid on garden and agricultural plants, very few studies have been carried out regarding the effect of humic acid on medicinal plants, thus the present study aims to investigate the effect of humic acid on germination and morphological characteristics of the medicinal plants’ seeds Plantago ovata Forssk, Borago officinalis L. and Cichorium intybus L. in order to determine the best response of these species to the applied concentrations of humic acid
