The role of mycorrhizal fungi in acquisition of mineral nutrients by host plants is examined for three groups of mycorrhizas. These are; the ectomycorrhizas (ECM), the ericoid mycorrhizas (EM), and the vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizas (VAM). Mycorrhizal infection may affect the mineral nutrition...

three important nutrients Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) mediates major stress responses in plants. Here, involvement of K has been discussed briefly in plant stress response along with its impact on plant development. K has been ...
N, P and K were applied annually; the micronutrient mix was applied once at the start of the study to avoid toxicity of largely immobile micronutrients. Note that ammonium nitrate was used in 2007 at some sites before switching to urea, however experiments at subset of the sites showed no ...

Pepper plants grown on media with metal NPs showed increased root length and activity (for Fe, Zn, Cu NPs and their composition) and chlorophyll content in leaves (for NPs Fe and Cu). However, addition of Chitosan modified the effects. Monitoring of pepper grown on MS with NPs composition ...
However, weight restrictions on supporting structures may limit the design of biofilters in MLW, particularly when implementing saturated zone designs. Green facades can accommodate vegetation with extensive roots and heavier substrate loads compared to living walls. The number of plants and biofilter ...
Although the impacts of grazing on the NH4-N fluxes were quantitatively small, it is still necessary to investigate the underlying mechanisms of such impacts due to the strong toxicity of ammonia nitrogen to aquatic organisms (Yang et al., 2010). The increased NH4-N fluxes in Buha River ...

Table 1 Plant-essential mineral elements: interaction in soil, uptake forms and typical concentrations in plants Full size table Similar to antagonistic interactions among nutrient elements, synergism in nutrient uptake also has been demonstrated. Synergism between P and Mn, as well as between K and...
