Improving Phosphorus Efficiency in Crops with Focus on Purple Acid Phosphatase: Potentials and Perspective
Low-phosphorus (P) stress as a key factor limiting plant growth and production is common in most agricultural soils. Most of the soil-applied phosphate will be rapidly immobilized and most of annually applied phosphate fertilizers are fixed in the soil in organic forms by adsorption, sedimentation and transformation. However, excess P application may lead to contamination of water sources by en...
متن کاملEnvironmental impact assessment and sustainability level determination in cement plants (Case study: Shahrood cement plant)
Focusing on environmental impact assessment as a new tool to determine the harmful effects of projects on the environment is very necessary. The establishment of cement plants in Iran is accompanied by huge investments that aim to create jobs and have others economic aspects; this trend is on the rise. However, cement plants contribute to environmental pollutions. Therefore, understanding the e...
متن کاملGrowth and development responses to UV-B exclusion in crops
UV-B radiation affects crop plants. Growing interest has been shown in studying the effectsof UV-B radiation exclusion on crops since 1993. This article summarized the generalconsequences of UV-B radiation exclusion on crop plants from the aspacts of plant morphology,growth and development. UV-B exlusion has promoting effects on plant height, internodeand leaf size. UV-B exclusion increases roo...
متن کاملTHE 2007 FRAZIER-ZAUMEYER LECTURE Bean Improvement Cooperative 50^^ Anniversary Meeting, Madison, WI FROM RALPH CORBETT'S BEAN FIELD TO MOLECULAR DETAILS OF BROAD SPECTRUM POTYVIRUS RESISTANCE
Genetic resistance to plant viruses has been used for at least eighty years to control agricultural losses to viral diseases. To date, hundreds of naturally occurring genes for resistance to plant viruses have been reported from studies of both monocot and dicot crops, their wild relatives and the plant model, Arabidopsis. While viruses are relatively simple genetic entities and much progress h...
متن کاملMolecular genetic control of leaf lifespan in plants - A review
Leaf senescence constitutes the last stage of leaf development in plants and proceeds through a highly regulated program in order to redistribution of micro- and macro-nutrients from the senescing leaves to the developing/growing plant organs. Initiation and progression of leaf senescence is accompanied by massive sequential alterations at various levels of leaf biology including leaf morpholog...
