The aim of this study was to analyze yields, biological efficiency, earliness (expressed as days to first harvest), and precociousness and establish models for the mushroom growing according to these parameters. The experiment followed a double factorial design with four sources of calcium (calcitic limestone, calcitic limestone + gypsum, dolomitic limestone and dolomitic limestone + gypsum) an...

This study focuses on the assessment of herbicide adsorption and degradation in three soils (Haplic Chernozem, Haplic Fluvisol, Arenic Regozem) from different agricultural regions Czech Republic where sunflower is cultivated. Soil samples were used laboratory batch experiments for six herbicides commonly crops. The findings are to examine effect soil properties degradation, as well determine po...

Understanding the correlation between soil properties, species composition and diversity in veredas (Brazilian savanna palm swamps) can provide insights for managing this unique endangered environment. We evaluated relationships distribution of herbaceous, subshrub, shrub physicochemical properties 21 vereda sites (315 10-m transects) Central Brazil. Our results showed high floristic alpha beta...

Apart from improving plant and soil water status during drought, it has been suggested that hydraulic lift (HL) could enhance plant nutrient capture through the flow of mineral nutrients directly from the soil to plant roots, or by maintaining the functioning of mycorrhizal fungi. We evaluated the extent to which the diel cycle of water availability created by HL covaries with the efflux of HL ...

In shale, liquid hydrocarbons are accumulated mainly in nanometer-scale pores or fractures, so the pore types and PSDs (pore size distributions) play a major role in the shale oil occurrence (free or absorbed state), amount of oil, and flow features. The pore types and PSDs of marine shale have been well studied; however, research on lacustrine shale is rare, especially for shale in the oil gen...

about 35 samples were collected from lower and upper parts of the proposed frasnianamennian boundary in three sections of upper devonian marine sediments of the kerman province. the biostratigraphical and geochemical studies indicate that about 45% extinction of brachiopods probably caused by the frasnian-famennian bioevents, which is slightly higher than thr rate of devonian-carboniferous exti...

Fifty one soil samples werecallected from some wadis i.e.,(El Sheikh Soliman,Sidri,El-Arishia and Bodra) of AduRudeis district, which is lies between mountain chains. These were collected to determined their physical chemical properties assess total available contents Fe, Mn, Zn Cu in a fairly intanse sampling scheme.The results indicate that the texture class varies sandy clay loam, The conten...

Soil quality indicators and nematode abundance were characterized in a loessial soil under long-term conservation tillage to evaluate the effects of no-till, double-disk, chisel, and moldboard plow treatments. Indicators included soil electrical conductivity (EC), soil texture, soil organic matter (SOM), and total particulate organic matter (tPOM). Nematode abundance was positively correlated w...
