yazd asfordi phosphate rock (pr) was partially acidulated at five levels (0, 40, 60, 80, 100%) for increasing the relative agronomic effectiveness (rae) of canola (brassica napus l.), var. rgs in two calcareous and non-calcareous soils. the partially acidulated phosphate rock (papr) was compared vs. the standard fertilizer (triple superphosphate) in two levels (50 and 100 mg p/kg). this study w...

phosphorus (p) sorption in soils is a key process governing its availability to crops. there has been scanty information available on the p sorption characteristics of calcare-ous soils of western azarbaijan province, iran. in this study, p sorption characteristics and their relationship to soil properties were determined in 36 soil samples belonging to 15 agricultural soil series located in th...

Of utmost concern in storm water treatment today is the removal of dissolved phosphorus. One method to effectively determine the phosphorus removal capacity of different sand filtration media is controlled, well mixed experiments called batch studies. Batch studies with an initial phosphorus concentration typical of storm water were conducted at the University of Minnesota on C 33 sand, calcare...

Soil disturbance is recognized as an important driver of biodiversity in dry grasslands, and can therefore be implemented as a restoration measure. However, because community re-assembly following disturbance includes stochastic processes, a focus only on species richness or establishment success of particular species will not inform on how plant communities respond ecologically to disturbance....

in calcareous soils of the southern Everglades and of adjacent areas is needed urgently. The understanding of P sorption and desorption by soils is imporThe relationships between P-sorption capacity, P tant for safeguarding water quality and for fertilizer management. availability and soil components in calcareous soils have Little is known about the P-sorption characteristics of the calcareous...

OBJECTIVES To describe the signalment, presence of systemic and/or ocular comorbidities, times to detected healing and probabilities of recurrence after diamond burr debridement (DBD) of eyes with presumed corneal calcareous degeneration and secondary ulceration and/or ocular pain. ANIMALS STUDIED Twenty-six dogs with 42 eyes affected, 34 eyes treated with DBD. METHODS A case series was con...

Iron (Fe) deficiency is a critical agricultural problem, especially in calcareous soil, which is distributed worldwide. Rice plants take up Fe(II) from soil through a OsIRT1 transporter (Strategy I-related system) and also take up Fe(III) via a phytosiderophore-based system (Strategy II system). However, rice plants are susceptible to low-Fe conditions because they have low Fe(III) reduction ac...
