in this study, the effect of hole mulching application of zn and mn on acacia, elm, and plane nutrition was examined in the green spaces of isfahan. three different sites were chosen in a randomized complete block design using six treatments of: 1. cow manure compost, 2. cow manure vermicompost, 3. urban waste compost, 4. urban waste vermicompost, 5. dug hole refilled with the same soil coming ...

Starch content in leaves of HLB (Huanglongbing or citrus greening)-affected branches increases sharply compared to those from non-HLB trees. Starch not only over-accumulates in photosynthetic cells, but starch grains become prominent in vascular parenchyma and sieve elements as well. These observations imply strong disturbances in starch metabolism and photoassimilate partitioning in HLB-affect...

The balance of the mineral nutrition in mango leaves during flowering period affects trees and fruit production. Because soil karst areas has a slow unbalanced supply rate nutrients, orchards area generally have low yield. There are few studies on fertilization areas, especially diagnosis leaf nutrition. In this study, typical Guangxi province, one main mango-producing China, were selected from...

The Mediterranean shrub Cistus ladanifer grows naturally in São Domingos (Portugal), an abandoned copper mine. High levels of trace elements in plants can generate oxidative stress increasing the activity of antioxidant enzymes. The aim of this work was to evaluate and compare As, Cu, Pb and Zn concentrations and the activity of the soluble and cell wall ionically bounded forms of the enzymes c...

Previous studies on rare earth element (REE) bioaccumulation have focused on their accumulation rate and fractionation, but the processes involved remain unclear. In this study, the accumulation and fractionation of REEs in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were investigated using solution culture with exogenous mixed REEs. A decrease in REE contents was observed from the roots to the tops of wheat....
