Borax Promotes Fertility of Brassica napus Better Than Other Boron Species at Suboptimal Supply
ABSTRACT Background Continuous and sufficient boron (B) supply is essential for achieving maximum yield in Brassica napus. Increasing incidences of environmental water limitation are linked to reduced plant B availability and increased B deficiencies.

Genotypic Variation in Rice Tolerance to Fe Toxicity During Germination and Establishment
Genotypic difference in Fe tolerance during establishment and the attributable traits. ABSTRACT Background Poor crop establishment caused by Fe toxicity hinders the adoption of direct‐seeded rice cultivation in Fe‐rich soil. To date, there have been few reports on the genotypic variation in rice's Fe tolerance during the pre‐establishment period (i.e.,

Acidification of Biogas Residues Stimulates Manganese Uptake in Wheat
ABSTRACT Background Efficient application of organic fertilizers contributes to resource‐efficient agriculture. Acidification of liquid manure effectively reduces ammonia (NH3) emissions. However, the effect of acidification on other plant nutrients, such as Mn, often a yield‐limiting nutrient in cereal production, is not well understood.

ABSTRACT Background and aims Soil microbes adapt to varying nutrient inputs by modifying their utilization strategies, with root exudates and animal urine serving as key carbon (C) and nutrient sources in grasslands. Nonetheless, the specific mechanisms by which cow urine and root exudates influence microbial community and resource utilization remain ...

A First Quantitative Assessment of Soil Health at European Scale Considering Soil Genesis
ABSTRACT Background Soil health degradation is a major threat to European food security, biodiversity, and climate stability. While scientists have debated how to define soil health during recent decades, a quantifiable framework for monitoring, management, and policy remains lacking.
