EVALUATION OF ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY OF ANAEROBIC DIGESTATE AND ITS EFFECT ON GROWTH AND YIELD OF MAIZE [PDF]
Pakistan is an agricultural country. The increased population leads to increasing demand for food. Unfortunately, crops are infected by different microbes and nutrient deficiency of soil adversely affects the yield of the crop ...

Sedum plumbizincicola is a zinc‐cadmium hyperaccumulator native to China with high potential for use in phytoremediation. Synchrotron micro‐X‐ray fluorescence elemental imaging shows that zinc is localized in the leaf tips, petioles, and nodes with the highest Zn concentrations observed in the epidermis and vascular system of both leaves and stems ...

Our findings suggest that nitrogen level and the ratio of nitrate to ammonium have an interaction effect on the overall growth of Alternanthera philoxeroides in Cd polluted water. We argue that when considering the growth of this invasive species in Cd polluted water, it is equally important to consider both the effects of nitrate to ammonium ratio and

Utilization of plants for stabilization and cleaning up of metal contaminated soil and water [PDF]
Phytoremediation has been defined as the use of green plants and their associated rhizospheric microorganisms to remove, degrade, or contain contaminants located in soisl, sediments, groundwater, surface water, and even the atmosphere.
