Parental Exposure to Nanoplastics and Graphene Oxide Induces Transgenerational Toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution by emerging contaminants such as nanoplastics (NPs) and graphene oxide (GO) represents a growing threat to global health and ecosystems. This study investigated the effects of parental exposure, both isolated and combined, to 100 μg/L NPs (polystyrene, spherical, 100 nm) and 100 mg/L GO, using Caenorhabditis elegans as ...

Nitrogen Fertilizer Application in Grass–Clover Elevated Nitrate Leaching in the Follow‐on Maize Crop

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Grass–clover and silage maize are key for dairy feed production and frequently occur within the same crop rotations. Fertilizer management in grass–clover may leave residual effects that influence both environmental outcomes and the performance of subsequent maize crops.

Food Security Versus Environmental Health: The Nitrogen Dilemma

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and, consequently, crop production. However, the cycling of nitrogen in the environment can have negative effects. Here, we review the historical development of scientific and public awareness of these effects and the influence this has had on political action to control them.

Organic Matter Quality and Microbial Activity in Soils Managed With Brachiaria Succession

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although succession systems and brachiaria improve soil quality, gaps remain in microbial community dynamics, activity, and soil organic matter stocks. Methods The objective was to evaluate the carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) stocks of soil organic matter fractions and their distribution, molecular characterization, enzyme activity ...

Effects of Crop Rotation and Hydrogel Application on Soil Biological Properties and Wheat Biomass Production in Drylands

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and aim Conservation agriculture (CA) is rapidly gaining traction to promote sustainable crop production, focusing on minimum soil disturbance, permanent soil cover, and strategic crop rotation. Moreover, hydrogel is increasingly being used to improve water retention, including in combination with CA, particularly in water limited ...
