to study the effect of type and different nitrogen fertilizers on controlling egyptian broomrape, field and greenhouse studies based on randomized complete block with three replications, were conducted at ferdowsi university of mashhad. greenhouse study treatments were consisted of ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulfate and urea each of which applied at four rates (75, 150, 300 and 350 kg/ha). fiel...

DNA microarray analysis of gene expression in steady-state chemostat cultures limited for potassium revealed a surprising connection between potassium and ammonium: potassium limits growth only when ammonium is the nitrogen source. Under potassium limitation, ammonium appears to be toxic for Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This ammonium toxicity, which appears to occur by leakage of ammonium through ...

nitrate and ammonium forms of nitrogen are being applied to improve plant growth and uptake of other nutrients. given that the effect of application of different nitrate to ammonium ratios accompanied by other fertilizers (i.e. fe, mn and zn) has not been studied on wheat growth as well as uptake of fe, mn and zn, three glasshouse pot studies were conducted with factorial arrangement of treatme...

In the crystal structure of the title salt, NH(4) (+).[(C(6)H(5))P(O)(2)(OH)](-) or NH(4) (+)·C(6)H(6)O(3)P(-), the N and O atoms inter-act via hydrogen bonds to generate a layer motif. The phenyl rings are stacked above and below this layer, sandwiching the hydrogen-bonded layer.

Bacillus subtilis uses glutamine as the best source of nitrogen. In the absence of glutamine, alternative nitrogen sources such as ammonium can be used. Ammonium utilization involves the uptake of the gas or the ammonium ion, the synthesis of glutamine by the glutamine synthetase and the recycling of the glutamate by the glutamate synthase. In this work, ammonium transport in B. subtilis was st...

RATIONALE Because of the threat of bombings using improvised explosives containing ammonium nitrate (AN), law enforcement and intelligence communities have been interested in stable isotope techniques for tracking and discriminating AN sources. Separate analysis of the AN component ions ammonium and nitrate would add discriminatory power to these techniques. METHODS Ammonium ions in dissolved...
