Root Efficiency and Mineral Nutrition in Apple
Among deciduous fruit crops, maximum sustained yields under ideal conditions reportedly range from 22 MT/ha in sweet cherry to 112 MT/ha in apple: about a 5-fold difference. Root length densities under fruit trees, however, range from about 0.2 km/m in apple to about 12 km/m in kiwifruit: a 60-fold difference. What causes these differences among the root systems of different fruit crops? Patter...
متن کاملEvolution of trees and mycorrhizal fungi intensifies silicate mineral weathering
Forested ecosystems diversified more than 350 Ma to become major engines of continental silicate weathering, regulating the Earth's atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration by driving calcium export into ocean carbonates. Our field experiments with mature trees demonstrate intensification of this weathering engine as tree lineages diversified in concert with their symbiotic mycorrhizal fungi. P...
متن کاملImproving Growth and Performance of Young Almond Trees in Nursery by Optimizing Mineral Nutrition
Short growing season restricts production of standard-sized fruit trees in nurseries at cold regions. Enhancing plant growth by optimizing program of mineral nutrition may solve the problem. This study evaluated efficiency of fertilizers [urea, sulfur coated urea (SCU), or foliar applications of a NPK compound fertilizer] for optimizing the growth of seedling rootstocks and grafted young almond...

F or normal growth and optimum production, fruit the quantities that they are in certain annual crops. Generally, nitrogen is the only macronutrient that must be consistently supplied to fruit trees in California. Under certain conditions, other nutrient deficiencies can develop. Toxicities can also become a problem. These will be discussed in the sections for individual nutrients. trees requir...
متن کاملNonruminant Nutrition: Mineral Nutrition
Calcium formate (CaFo; Rovelan–Lanxess Corporation, Germany) is a commonly used source of calcium in poultry and swine feed in the EU. Due to increased cost, US interest in alternate feedstuffs has grown. The objective of this study was to evaluate CaFo in broiler diets as an alternate calcium source during a 49d pen trial. A total of 2,160 male Cobb 500 broilers were randomized and placed in 4...
