Root exudate fingerprint of Brachiaria humidicola reveals vanillin as a novel and effective nitrification inhibitor [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023 Introduction: Biological Nitrification Inhibition (BNI) is defined as the plant-mediated control of soil nitrification via the release of nitrification inhibitors. BNI of Brachiaria humidicola (syn. Urochloa humidicola) has been mainly attributed to root-
