Microwave Transmittance Technique Using Microstrip Patch Antennas, as a Non-Invasive Tool to Determine Soil Moisture in Rhizoboxes [PDF]
Sensors, 2020 Investigating the growth behavior of plant root systems as a function of soil water is considered an important information for the study of root physiology. A non-invasive tool based on electromagnetic wave transmittance in the microwave frequency range,

Immobilization of lead by application of zeolite: Leaching column and rhizobox incubation studies [PDF]
Applied Clay Science, 2013 Application of zeolite can reduce lead (Pb) mobility in soil. Leaching columns and rhizobox incubation experiments were carried out to investigate the leaching processes and rhizosphere behavior of Pb in a Pb-contaminated soil amended with zeolite. Zeolite addition reduced Pb release from the contaminated soil as well as increasing leachate pH and ...

Rhizoboxes as Rapid Tools for the Study of Root Systems of Prunus Seedlings
Plants, 2022 Rootstocks are fundamental for peach production, and their architectural root traits determine their performance. Root-system architecture (RSA) analysis is one of the key factors involved in rootstock selection.

The Effect of Rhizoboxes on Plant Growth and Root: Shoot Biomass Partitioning [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Various types of flat rhizoboxes aid in root visualization and tracking in experiments where the focus is upon root system growth and development. While size of the pot is known to affect experiments, nothing is known about the impact of rhizoboxes—not ...

Rhizosphere processes induce changes in dissimilatory iron reduction in a tidal marsh soil: a rhizobox study [PDF]
Plant and Soil, 2018 Although the role of microbial iron respiration in tidal marshes has been recognized for decades, the effect of rhizosphere processes on dissimilatory ferric iron reduction (FeR) is poorly known. Herein, we examined the FeR surrounding the root zone of three tidal marsh plants.

Effects of phosphorus deficiency on the root growth of lentil seedlings grown in rhizobox
Bangladesh Journal of Botany, 1970 Phosphorus deficiency resulted in an increase in the length of primary root, length and number of lateral roots, root hairs and root meristem volume of the seedlings of lentil grown in rhizobox. Key words: Phosphorus deficiency; Root length; Root growth; Rhizobox; Lentil DOI: 10.3329/bjb.v38i2.5153 Bangladesh J. Bot. 38(2): 215-218, 2009 (December)

Tree species composition influences enzyme activities and microbial biomass in the rhizosphere: a rhizobox approach. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Monoculture causes nutrient losses and leads to declines in soil fertility and biomass production over successive cultivation. The rhizosphere, a zone of usually high microbial activities and clearly distinct from bulk soil, is defined as the volume of ...

E3S Web of Conferences, 2013 Our purpose was to quantify the effect of rhizosphere processes on the fractions of Copper (Cu) in 10 soils amended with sewage sludge under greenhouse conditions by using a rhizobox. For amended soils, 1% (w/w) of sewage sludge was added to soil samples

Diversity of NC10 bacteria associated with sediments of submerged Potamogeton crispus (Alismatales: Potmogetonaceae) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background The nitrite-dependent anaerobic methane oxidation (N-DAMO) pathway, which plays an important role in carbon and nitrogen cycling in aquatic ecosystems, is mediated by “Candidatus Methylomirabilis oxyfera” (M. oxyfera) of the NC10 phylum.

Minerals, 2022 Red mud (RM), a byproduct of aluminum production, is used as amendments to increase the pH and reduce the available Cd in soil, but the effects of RM treatments on rice and rhizosphere chemistry changes at different radial-oxygen-loss (ROL) rates and developmental stages remain unclear.
