چکیده

Abstract Aims South-western Australia has some of the most phosphorus (P)-impoverished soils in world. Hakea prostrata (Proteaceae) nitrate (NO 3 − )-uptake restraint, associated with its high P-use efficiency. This research explores how common this trait is other Proteaceae and co-occurring plant species south-western Australia. Methods Banksia attenuata (Proteaceae), B. telmatiaea Melaleuca seriata (Myrtaceae) M. rhaphiophylla were grown no NO , Medium (500 µM) or High (2500 treatments source nitrogen (N). Plants harvested after treatments. Leaf phosphate concentrations determined, as well biomass, total N P leaves, stems roots separately. Results had similar content when supplied they did . All four same low leaf -N concentration treatments, more than 6% N. those plants growing their natural habitat where available soil was much lower. These results are sharp contrast that typically studied, for example Arabidopsis thaliana Conclusions exhibited -uptake restraint to different degrees. Nitrate-uptake appears a convergent many evolved severely P-impoverished landscapes, allowing them be P-efficient.

Update on phosphorus nutrition in Proteaceae. Phosphorus nutrition of proteaceae in severely phosphorus-impoverished soils: are there lessons to be learned for future crops?

Australia harbors some of the most nutrient-impoverished soils on Earth. Southwestern Australian soils are especially phosphorus (P) impoverished, due to the age of this ancient landscape and it being unaffected by major geological disturbance for millions of years (Hopper, 2009; Lambers et al., 2010). We are only now beginning to understand how plants acquire and use P in such highly infertile...

Plant adaptations to severely phosphorus-impoverished soils.

Mycorrhizas play a pivotal role in phosphorus (P) acquisition of plant roots, by enhancing the soil volume that can be explored. Non-mycorrhizal plant species typically occur either in relatively fertile soil or on soil with a very low P availability, where there is insufficient P in the soil solution for mycorrhizal hyphae to be effective. Soils with a very low P availability are either old an...

Proteaceae from severely phosphorus-impoverished soils extensively replace phospholipids with galactolipids and sulfolipids during leaf development to achieve a high photosynthetic phosphorus-use-efficiency.

Proteaceae species in south-western Australia occur on severely phosphorus (P)-impoverished soils. They have very low leaf P concentrations, but relatively fast rates of photosynthesis, thus exhibiting extremely high photosynthetic phosphorus-use-efficiency (PPUE). Although the mechanisms underpinning their high PPUE remain unknown, one possibility is that these species may be able to replace p...

Gelam (Melaleuca spp.) Honey-Based Hydrogel as Burn Wound Dressing

A novel cross-linked honey hydrogel dressing was developed by incorporating Malaysian honey into hydrogel dressing formulation, cross-linked and sterilized using electron beam irradiation (25 kGy). In this study, the physical properties of the prepared honey hydrogel and its wound healing efficacy on deep partial thickness burn wounds in rats were assessed. Skin samples were taken at 7, 14, 21,...
