Quality of Rye Plants (Secale cereale) as Affected by Agronomic Biofortification with Iodine
This study assessed the possibility of using iodine-containing fertilizers for agronomic biofortification of rye biomass used as fodder for cows, and establish the best application method and form and the optimal dose of iodine (I) under field conditions.

Effect of Rates and Sources of Potassium Fertilizer on Productivity and Root Quality of Sugar Beet [PDF]
In Egyptian soils, potassium fertilization is now a crucial component of sugar beet production. Because K-fertilizer is considering a costly fertilizer in Egypt, farmers either ignored using it or reduced its use to bare minimum.

Boron, Manganese, and Zinc Sorption and Leaf Uptake on Citrus Cultivated on a Sandy Soil
Solute fate in soil-plant continuum could either be soil or leaf uptake or leaching beyond the rooting zone. An adsorption coefficient (KD) is an important chemical property to describe the interaction between the solute and soil, affecting the solute ...

Silicon Affects Growth and Nitrogen Uptake of Young Olive Plants
Nitrogen (N) is commonly used in the fertilization plans for Mediterranean olive orchards, often regardless of the nutritional status of the plant. However, improper use of N fertilizers can reduce soil health and crop yields.

Effects of nitrogen addition on root traits and soil nitrogen in the long-term restored grasslands
Fine root traits are plastic and responsive to increased nitrogen (N) deposition. However, with the restoring of the ecosystem after grain for green, little research has been reported about the response of root traits in a long-term restored ecosystem to

Soil acidification and salinity: the importance of biochar application to agricultural soils
Soil acidity is a serious problem in agricultural lands as it directly affects the soil, crop production, and human health. Soil acidification in agricultural lands occurs due to the release of protons (H+) from the transforming reactions of various carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur-containing compounds.

A minimal cellulosome‐like system in Cellulosilyticum lentocellum
Cellulose‐degrading bacteria typically use cellulosomes, large multi‐enzyme complexes on a scaffold protein. In Cellulosilyticum lentocellum, we characterise a far smaller arrangement, a single scaffold bound to one cellulase through a single cohesin‐dockerin interaction.
