Research on the Presence of Phaeozems in the Suceava Plateau
Phaeozems are in class cernisols and has a wide spread in the Suceava Plateau. These soils have been the objective of many pedo-geographical studies, being firstly interpreted as exhausted chernozems (Obrejeanu et al., 1958), as exhausted brown forest soils (Bucur, 1967), and then as pratozems or chernozems like soils (Florea and Muica, 1962 ...

Conservation practices in an East African catchment dramatically cut sediment (80%) and phosphorus (76%) loads but are markedly less effective on nitrogen (8% reduction) due to legacy groundwater nitrate, revealing a critical trade‐off between water quality and quantity.

Individual and combined phytotoxic effects of cadmium, lead and arsenic on soybean in Phaeozem [PDF]
Acute laboratory toxicity tests were carried out to assess the individual and combined toxic effects of metals including cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb) and the metalloid arsenic (As) in Phaeozem on the seed germination and seedling growth of soybean, Glycine max Seeds were exposed to varied concentrations of Cd, Pb and As individually and in mixtures ...

Boron deficiency responses in maize (Zea mays L.) roots
Abstract Background Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for plants. Dicot plants respond to insufficient B supply by altering root architecture and root hair growth. How root systems of rather low‐B demanding monocot species such as maize (Zea mays L.) respond to B deficiency in terra has not been experimentally resolved, yet.

Effect of selected extraction factors on Bradford‐reactive soil protein extractability from arable land and grassland in relation to color correction. ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to investigate the hypothesis that by altering extraction time, temperature in the autoclave, and type of extractant during extraction, the maximum possible Bradford ...

ABSTRACT Sustainable soil management practices, including conservation tillage practices, such as reduced tillage and no‐till, are considered beneficial for different soil functions. So far, additional benefits of applying conservation tillage to improve crop yields under climate change are not fully clear and have rarely been investigated ...

Comparison of the physical properties of soils belonging to different reference soil groups
Soil properties can be influenced by long-term agricultural management practices as described in pedological literature. In this study, selected physical properties (particle density and bulk density, total porosity, maximum capillary water capacity ...
