Modeling of the Accumulated Nitrogen Loss by Volatilization in Topdressing Fertilization in Corn Plants [PDF]
Corn cultivation is one of the most important in the world. Urea possesses a high concentration of nitrogen, which is very important to corn crops, is easily handled, and has a lower cost per kilogram of nitrogen, but it presents high losses of this ...

Exergy Analysis of Liquid Nitrogen Power Cycles [PDF]
Nitrogen is by-product from cryogenic air separation processes used for oxygen production for metallurgy and oxygen-enriched combustion purposes. If the gases are delivered from air separation unit (ASU) in liquid phase, liquid nitrogen (LN2) can be used

Functional integration of LCIB, a component of the algal carbon-concentrating mechanism, enhances carbon assimilation, nitrogen-use efficiency, and biomass in tobacco [PDF]
Engineering carbon-concentrating mechanisms (CCMs) into C3 crops is a promising strategy to improve photosynthetic efficiency by increasing the availability of CO2 near the active site of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO), the ...

Biosolids affect the growth, nitrogen accumulation and nitrogen leaching of barley [PDF]
Biosolids are organic fertilisers derived from treated and stabilised sewage sludge that increase soil fertility and supply nitrogen to crops over a long period, but can also increase the risk of nitrogen (N) leaching. In this work, spring barley was grown in lysimeters filled with soil amended with biosolids, and with and without mineral N ...

Influence of Nitrogen Availability on Seed Nitrogen Accumulation in Pea
ABSTRACTThe final seed nitrogen concentration (the ratio of seed N and dry matter content) is highly variable in pea (Pisum sativum L.) and N remobilization during seed filling may limit yield by restricting the seed filling period. This study was conducted to determine how seed N accumulation is regulated in pea.
