For recruitment of increased biological activity, a signal response mechanism recruits more plant associated nitrogen fixers. For uptake of organic nitrogen, a purpose-built metabolite targets ...

“Plants are not keeping up overall with nitrogen uptake compared to the amount of carbon they’re seeing. The contribution of this paper is trying to get at the mechanisms. . . . that’s important ...

Understanding how much nitrogen actually gets taken up by plants is key to improving efficiency—both for profitability and ...

Potassium, like nitrogen, can be carried away by water ... close to the time of plant uptake because a fall application could be leached away,” Ferrie says. “You may want to broadcast ...

Some plant available N may be residual in the soil ... Weiss, and A. Doberman. 2008.Nitrogen uptake, fixation, and response to fertilizer N in soybeans: A review. Field Crops Res.108:1-13. Taylor, R.

The dilution of plant and soil stable isotopic nitrogen showed that additional nitrogen uptake in the inoculated plots was ...

Treating potato and sugar beet crops now with nitrogen fixing bacteria biofertilisers could ensure plants have essential nutrients available during key growth stages if dry weather compromises uptake ...
