Biogas effluent (BE) is a potential source of fertilizer for rice. Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) irrigation based on surface water level can increase rice grain yield (GY), but its effect under BE application still unclear. To test whether AWD GY application, we conducted mesocosm experiment screen-house conditions in Can Tho, Vietnam. We measured growth three nitrogen (N) treatments—zero-...

Chemo-enzymatic synthesis of glycolyl-ester-linked taxol-glucose conjugate, ie, 7-glycolyltaxol 2″-O-α-D-glucoside, was achieved by using α-glucosidase as a biocatalyst. The water-solubility of 7-glycolyltaxol 2″-O-α-D-glucoside (21 μM) was 53 fold higher than that of taxol. The hepatitis B virus envelope L particles (bio-nanocapsules) are effective for delivering 7-glycolyltaxol 2″-O-α-D-gluco...

Nitrogen (N) is the most important macronutrient used in modern agricultural systems to enhance crop yields; however, a significant amount of applied N not taken up by and lost environment. Improving nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) crops can curb these environmental losses while concurrently delivering economic gains. Plant biostimulants have potential improve NUE agronomic settings. In this rese...

The irrational use of nitrogen (N) fertilizer has become a major threat to soil quality and food security, resulting in serious ecological environmental problems. Holistic approaches N application are required maintain high utilization efficiency (NUE) sustainable agriculture development. Biochar is an efficient carbon-rich material for amending promoting crop uptake, but knowledge pertaining t...

Synthetic nitrogen (N) fertilizers support global food production and feed over half of the population. However, more than N applied to croplands are not absorbed by crops, but lost environment, leading low use efficiency (NUE) globally. Identifying overcoming socioeconomic barriers achieve an improvement NUE a reduction in loss is thus key for management attain agricultural environmental susta...

Drought stress and phosphorus (P) deficit decrease soybean P nitrogen (N) accumulation, which limits productivity. Therefore, traits related to N uptake and/or their efficient utilization are important for adaptation P- water-deficit conditions. We hypothesize that increasing nodulation enhance uptake, improving use efficiency (PUE NUE) the of drought low To test this hypothesis, we selected fo...

in order to investigate the effect of urea and azocompost on economic yield, nitrogen use efficiency (nue) and radiation use efficiency (rue) of wild majoram, a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications at yazd and mashhad, iran, during 2012-2013 growing season. four urea levels and four azocompost levels (to provide 0, 40, 80 and 120 k...

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a daily staple food crop for more than half of the global population and improving productivity an important task to meet future demands expanding world population. The application nitrogen (N) fertilization improved rice growth in world, but excess use causes environmental economic issues. One main goals breeding reducing N while maintaining productivity. Therefore, e...

Energy crops have proved to be a viable alternative fossil fuels. However, high biomass production always means that large quantities of nutrients from the soil are removed at harvest. The goal this work was estimate nutrient (nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium) use efficiency (NUE) and nitrogen balance in an eight-year-old Populus deltoides clone Lux, short rotation forestry under two cutting cy...

Nitrogen (N) is essential for sustaining life on Earth and plays a vital role in plant growth thus agricultural production. The excessive use of N fertilizers not only harms the economy, but also environment. In context environmental impacts caused by agriculture, global maize improvement programs aim to develop cultivars with high N-use efficiency (NUE) reduce fertilizers. Since highly mobile ...
