Citrus response to salinity: growth and nutrient uptake.
To determine the effects of salinity on relative growth rate (RGR), net assimilation rate on a leaf weight basis (NAR(w)), leaf weight ratio (LWR), and nutrient uptake and utilization of citrus, we grew four citrus rootstocks (sour orange, Cleopatra mandarin, Carrizo citrange and Citrus macrophylla) in nutrient solutions containing 0, 10, 20, 40 or 80 mM NaCl for 20, 40 or 60 days. For each ele...
متن کامل'Pink' Waxapple Response to Salinity: Growth and Nutrient Uptake
Waxapple (Syzygium samarngense Merr.et Perry) is an important tropical fruit in Taiwan. The famous producing area is located on the coast in Pingtung County. Land subsidence and climate change will tend to soil alkalization more seriously. This study was to evaluate the effects of NaCl in waxapple seedlings. NaCl salinity reduced waxapple shoot growth; it may due to reducing relative water cont...
متن کاملContrasting Nutrient Mitigation and Denitrification Potential of Agricultural Drainage Environments with Different Emergent Aquatic Macrophytes.
Remediation of excess nitrogen (N) in agricultural runoff can be enhanced by establishing wetland vegetation, but the role of denitrification in N removal is not well understood in drainage ditches. We quantified differences in N retention during experimental runoff events followed by stagnant periods in mesocosms planted in three different vegetation treatments: unvegetated, cutgrass [ (L.) Sw...
متن کاملThe ecological consequences of unpalatable prey: phytoplankton response to nutrient and predator additions
Recent theoretical and laboratory studies have suggested that unpalatable prey modify the degree to which trophic levels are regulated by bottom-up or top-down forces such that primarily edible communities are regulated by predation and primarily unpalatable communities are regulated by resource supply. Despite the hypothesised importance of prey edibility, experiments have only rarely examined...
متن کاملGrassland productivity in response to nutrient additions and herbivory is scale-dependent
Vegetation response to nutrient addition can vary across space, yet studies that explicitly incorporate spatial pattern into experimental approaches are rare. To explore whether there are unique spatial scales (grains) at which grass response to nutrients and herbivory is best expressed, we imposed a large (∼3.75 ha) experiment in a South African coastal grassland ecosystem. In two of six 60 × ...
