Different species of basil need different ammonium to nitrate ratio in hydroponics' system
Basil is a very important medicinal plant and culinary spice, and is marketed fresh, dried or frozen. In crop nutrition, nitrogen is essential for plant growth and as a macro-element, is part of the proteins’ structure and participates in the metabolic processes involved in the synthesis and energy transfer. It has been shown that a balance between ammonium and nitrate favors plant growth and t...
متن کاملStructure and Reactivity: Acidity and Basicity
For example, in the self-ionization of water we see that two water molecules collide to react and form a hydroxide ion and a hydronium ion. Each reaction begins first by an electrostatic attraction between an electron rich and an electron poor region of the reactants. Hydrogen bonding occurs between the electron deficient hydrogen of one water molecule with the electron rich oxygen of another w...
متن کاملAcidity and basicity of aqueous mixtures of a protic ionic liquid, ethylammonium nitrate.
Ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) is composed of C(2)H(5)NH(3)(+) and NO(3)(-) ions, which behave as an acid and a base, respectively. The ionic liquid thus involves small amounts of C(2)H(5)NH(2) and HNO(3) molecules owing to proton transfer from C(2)H(5)NH(3)(+) to NO(3)(-). The equilibrium constant K(s) (= [C(2)H(5)NH(2)][HNO(3)]), which corresponds to the autoprotolysis constant of water, was obt...
متن کاملThe interaction between ammonium and nitrate uptake in phytoplankton
A basic tenet of nitrogen utilization in phytoplankton is that ammoniuln inhibits nitrate uptake. Consequently, it is generally believed that little or no nitrate uptake occurs at ammonium concentrations above ca 1 yM. A thorough review of field studies shows that the reduction of nitrate uptake rate in the presence of ammonium is rarely so severe, and that it is a highly variable phenomenon. T...
متن کاملRoot-zone acidity and nitrogen source affects Typha latifolia L. growth and uptake kinetics of ammonium and nitrate.
The NH(4)(+) and NO(3)(-) uptake kinetics by Typha latifolia L. were studied after prolonged hydroponics growth at constant pH 3.5, 5.0, 6.5 or 7.0 and with NH(4)(+) or NO(3)(-) as the sole N-source. In addition, the effects of pH and N source on H(+) extrusion and adenine nucleotide content were examined. Typha latifolia was able to grow with both N sources at near neutral pH levels, but the p...
