Many plants have evolved adaptations in order to survive in low nitrogen environments. One of the best-known adaptations is that of plant symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing bacteria; this is the major route by which nitrogen is incorporated into plant biomass. A portion of this plant-associated nitrogen is then lost to insects through herbivory, and insects represent a nitrogen reservoir that is ge...

to evaluate interaction of salinity stress and nitrogen use methods on yield and yield components, in experiment was conducted in split plot in randomized complete block with 3 replications. treatments included: salinity of irrigation water levels 1.5, 4.4 and 7.9 ds/m as main plots, and nitrogen treatments 1. using n fertilizer at 3 stage in soil, 2. using two third n fertilizer in soil at pla...

This study investigated the effects of nitrogen form on root activity and uptake kinetics Camellia oleifera Abel. seedlings, providing a scientific basis for improving use efficiency fertilization in C. production. Taking one-year-old cultivar ‘Xianglin 27’ seedlings as subjects, 8 mmol·L−1 varied forms (NO3−:NH4+ = 0:0, 10:0, 7:3, 5:5, 3:7, 0:10) was applied this treatment conditions to invest...

, The nitrogen of the three above sources of nitrogen is not available to the plant until it has been converted to ammonia, the nitrites or nitrates. In sugarcane probably the most important of the above three compounds is the nitrate nitrogen form. When added to the soil in a commercial fertilizer, nitrate nitrogen, if applied in fairly large quantities, under certain conditions can also be th...

Inorganic nitrogen is commonly found in three different forms: Ammonia (NH4), nitrite (NO2), and nitrate (NO3). Ammonia is a principle form of nitrogen found in urban wastewater and runoff especially from pastures and feedlots. According to Kadlec and Knight (1996), ammonia, or ammonium nitrogen, is the preferred nutrient form for most wetland plants because of its importance in plant growth. A...

kochia scoparia is a salt resistant plant that can be used in producing forage in the areas with salt water and soil resources. one of the problems which produce the forage plants in these areas decreases the function and quality of the forage in irrigation condition with salt water. therefore, using the chemical fertilizers can be considered as a useful solution. this study was conducted to ev...
