Phosphorus (P) is one of the major essential macronutrient for plant growth. Phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PCB) is a group of heterotrophic bacteria capable of solubilizing organic and inorganic phosphorus from insoluble compounds, releasing phosphate available for plant uptake. In this study endophytic bacteria were isolated form nodules of French bean grown in different intercropping syste...

potassium is an essential plant macronutrient. different microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, yeast, algae and mosses are able to decompose silicate minerals of soil and to dissolve nutrient such as k, fe, zn and si, among them bacteria are more important. the aim of this study was to investigate the influence of two bacteria (azospirillum lipoferum and azotobacter chrococoum) on soil avai...

Objective(s): There are controversial results regarding the effect of the interaction of CETP polymorphisms with dietary fats on the lipid profiles. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of CETP polymorphisms (rs5882 and rs3764261) and macronutrient intakes interaction in relation to metabolic syndrome (MetS) or its components.Materials and Methods: In this nested case-control study, ...

Fertilization programs in lilium are suggested to start after shoot emergence or when the flower buds become visible because nutrients stored bulb adequate meet plant demands at transplant time. Defining nutrient uptake is essential determine periods of high demand and amounts which they should be provided. The objective this study was model accumulated Oriental provide insight into design envi...

Abstract A deficiency of the essential macronutrient sulfur leads to stunted plant growth and yield loss; however, an association with a symbiotic fungus can greatly improve nutrient uptake by host plant. Here, we identified functionally characterized high-affinity sulfate transporter from endophytic Serendipita indica. SiSulT fulfills all criteria expected functional responding limitation: exp...

Abstract Organic amendments can improve soil quality which has knock-on environmental and agronomic benefits. However, the use of new emerging organic such as biochar brown coal waste (BCW) in systems requires continuous holistic assessments for robust consensus building their agricultural applications. To examine application BCW woodchip (BIO) agroecosystems, secondary data from literature on ...

Title: NUTRIENT LIMITATION AND ITS CONSEQUENCES FOR PERFORMANCE AND THE HOMEOSTATIC REGULATION OF MACRONUTRIENT COMPOSITION IN TWO PHYTOPHAGOUS INSECTS WITH DIVERGENT LIFE-HISTORY STRATEGIES Andrea F. Huberty, Ph.D., 2005 Directed By: Professor Robert F. Denno, Department of Entomology Insect herbivores have a decidedly higher nitrogen and phosphorus than their host plants, an elemental mismatc...

1. Clinical malnutrition is a heterogenous group of disorders including macronutrient deficiencies leading to body cell mass depletion and micronutrient deficiencies, and these often coexist with infectious and inflammatory processes and environmental problems. 2. There is good evidence that specific micronutrients influence immunity, particularly zinc and vitamin A. Iron may have both benefici...

Microalgal-based wastewater treatment and CO2 sequestration from flue gases with subsequent biomass production represent a low-cost, eco-friendly, effective procedure of removing nutrients other pollutants assists in the decrease greenhouse gas emissions. Thus, it supports circular economy model. This is based on ability microalgae to utilise inorganic nutrients, mainly nitrogen phosphorous, as...

Between 1999-2000 and 2009-2010, the prevalence of obesity increased among boys, but not among girls. There was no change however, in the prevalence of obesity between 2007-2008 and 2009-2010 for either boys or girls (1). It is unclear if the changes in the prevalence of obesity were associated with corresponding changes in energy and macronutrient intakes in children and adolescents during thi...
