With increasing attention being paid to the consequences of global biodiversity losses, several recent studies have demonstrated that realistic species losses can have larger impacts than random species losses on community productivity and resilience. However, little is known about the effects of the order in which species are lost on biodiversity-disease relationships. Using a multiyear nitrog...

Sulfur is an essential mineral in human nutrition, involved vital biochemical processes. deficient soil becoming a severe issue, resulting from increased agricultural production and decreased sulfur emissions. Tomato cultivation using sulfur-poor soils desalinated water widespread, might result plant fruit deficiency. In the current work, we aimed at evaluating effect of fertilization (0.1–4 mM...

We compared the effects of nitrogen fertilization on shoot hydraulic architecture and leaf photosynthetic properties of Eucalyptus grandis Hill ex Maiden trees in Hawaii. It was hypothesized that water transport capacity would adjust to nutrient availability, with leaf specific hydraulic conductivity (kl) increasing in fertilized trees in coordination with higher photosynthetic capacity per uni...

Biofuels play an important role in the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, but their production results gases such as nitrous oxide (N2O), mainly from nitrogen (N) fertilization. Brassica carinata (carinata) is unexplored winter crop world’s main cropping areas, with multiple applications (cover crop, jet biofuel, and animal feed, among others). We analyzed a set on-farm fertilization experi...

Our researches have been made on brown forest soil that had been used in long-term experiments set up according to specified fertilization system for over 30 years. We have chosen those experiment variants in which quantities of nitrogen fertilizers were gradually increased. The soil samples taken from 0 cm to 30 cm depth were used to determine biological indexes of nitrogen availability (aerob...
