Influence of root and leaf traits on the uptake of nutrients in cover crops [PDF]

, 2016
Aims: Cover crops play an important role in soil fertility as they can accumulate large amounts of nutrients. This study aimed at understanding the nutrient uptake capacity of a wide range of cover crops and at assessing the relevance of acquisition ...

Arbuscular mycorrhiza enhances nutrient uptake in chickpea

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2011
Arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF) colonize roots of host plants and promote plant growth due to improved uptake of nutrients. While the effects on P uptake are well known, the relevance of AMF for the uptake of other nutrients is less investigated.

GSK3 Inhibits Macropinocytosis and Lysosomal Activity through the Wnt Destruction Complex Machinery

Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: Canonical Wnt signaling is emerging as a major regulator of endocytosis. Here, we report that Wnt-induced macropinocytosis is regulated through glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) and the β-catenin destruction complex.

Nutrient acquisition strategies in agroforestry systems [PDF]

Plant and Soil, 2019
Disentangling nutrient acquisition strategies between trees and crops is central to understanding positive nutrient interactions in agroforestry systems for improved low-input agriculture. However, as plants are responsive to a complex soil matrix at multiple scales, generalizable diagnostics across diverse agroforests remains challenging.

Root and Rhizosphere Bacterial Phosphatase Activity Varies with Tree Species and Soil Phosphorus Availability in Puerto Rico Tropical Forest

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Tropical forests generally occur on highly weathered soils that, in combination with the immobility of phosphorus (P), often result in soils lacking orthophosphate, the form of P most easily metabolized by plants and microbes.

Biopore characterization with in situ endoscopy: Influence of earthworms on carbon and nitrogen contents [PDF]

, 2014
Biopores have been shown to be enriched with plant available nutrients as compared to the surrounding bulk soil and therefore are considered hot spots for the nutrient acquisition especially in the otherwise nutrient-poor subsoil.

Arthropods as the Engine of Nutrient Cycling in Arid Ecosystems

Insects, 2021
Nutrient dynamics in most terrestrial ecosystems are regulated by moisture-dependent processes. In drylands, nutrient dynamics are often weakly associated with annual precipitation, suggesting that other factors are involved.
