Nutrient Leaching When Soil Is Part of Plant Growth Media
Soils can serve as sorbents for phosphorus (P), negating the need for artificial sorbents. The purpose of this study was to compare soils with different properties for their effect on nutrient levels in effluent. Four soils were mixed with sand and packed into columns 0.5 m long, with or without compost on the surface. Infiltration and effluent concentrations were measured before and after grow...
متن کاملPlant invasion is associated with higher plant-soil nutrient concentrations in nutrient-poor environments.
Plant invasion is an emerging driver of global change worldwide. We aimed to disentangle its impacts on plant-soil nutrient concentrations. We conducted a meta-analysis of 215 peer-reviewed articles and 1233 observations. Invasive plant species had globally higher N and P concentrations in photosynthetic tissues but not in foliar litter, in comparison with their native competitors. Invasive pla...
متن کاملSoil conditions and plant growth'
Plants can respond to soil conditions in ways that can not readily be explained in terms of the ability of the roots to take up water and nutrients. Roots may sense difficult conditions in the soil and thence send inhibitory signals to the shoots which harden the plants against the consequences of a deteriorating or restrictive environment, especially if the plants' water supply is at risk. Gen...
متن کاملNitrate: nutrient and signal for plant growth.
The mineral nutrient needed in greatest abundance by plants is nitrogen. Plants, however, must compete for nitrogen in the soil with abiotic and biotic processes such as erosion, leaching, and microbial consumption. Soil nitrogen is also lost when crops are harvested and plant material is removed from the soil. To be competitive, plants have evolved several mechanisms to acquire nitrogen at low...
متن کاملSoil inoculation with symbiotic microorganisms promotes plant growth and nutrient transporter genes expression in durum wheat
In a field experiment conducted in a Mediterranean area of inner Sicily, durum wheat was inoculated with plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), or with both to evaluate their effects on nutrient uptake, plant growth, and the expression of key transporter genes involved in nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) uptake. These biotic associations were studie...
