Nutrient Demand-driven Macronutrient Uptake in Fruit Crop

Nutrient Uptake in Rust Fungi

Nutrient uptake in obligate parasitism was recently reviewed by Bushnell and Gay (5) for the powdery mildews. In the rust fungi, the experimental approach to solving this question is quite different, because the fungus mycelium grows only in restricted areas within the leaf. The rust pustules act as foci for the accumulation of many metabolites. The fungus derives nutrients by alteration of the...

Low transient storage and uptake efficiencies in seven agricultural streams: implications for nutrient demand.

We used mass load budgets, transient storage modeling, and nutrient spiraling metrics to characterize nitrate (NO), ammonium (NH), and inorganic phosphorus (SRP) demand in seven agricultural streams across the United States and to identify in-stream services that may control these conditions. Retention of one or all nutrients was observed in all but one stream, but demand for all nutrients was ...

Nutrient uptake of peanut genotypes under different water regimes

Drought is a serious environmental stress limiting growth and productivity in peanut and other crops. Nutrient uptake of peanut is reduced under drought condition, which reduces yield. The objectives of this study were to investigate nutrient uptake of peanut genotypes in response to drought and to estimate the relationship between nutrient uptake and peanut yield under different water regi...

Nutrient Relations: Uptake and Location

Mineral Nutrient Uptake in Cucumbers Grafted on Lagenaria siceraria and Cucurbita moschata Rootstocks in Different Temperature

An experiment was designed to investigate the effect of grafting Cucumis sativus var. Super daminos on Cucurbita moschata (Rs) and Lagenaria siceraria (Lg)which is comparing with non-grafting of Cucumis sativus var. Super daminos (Rn) and self-grafting (Rc). The experiment carried out as a factorial experiment based on complete randomized design (CRD) with 4 replicates in two temperature treatm...
