AbstractCharcoal‐based amendments have a potential use in controlling NH3 volatilization from urea fertilization, owing to a high cation‐exchange capacity (CEC) that enhances the retention of NH
$ _4^+ $. An incubation study was conducted to evaluate the potential of oxidized charcoal (OCh) for controlling soil transformations of urea‐N, in comparison to urease inhibition by N‐(n‐butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT). Four soils, ranging widely in texture and CEC, were incubated aerobically for 0, 1, 3, 7, and 14 d after application of 15N‐labeled urea with or without OCh (150 g kg−1 fertilizer) or NBPT (0.5 g kg−1 fertilizer), and analyses were performed to determine residual urea and 15N recovery as volatilized NH3, mineral N (as exchangeable NH
$ _4^+ $, NO
$ _3^ - $, and NO
$ _2^ - $), and immobilized organic N. The OCh amendment reduced NH3 volatilization by up to 12% but had no effect on urea hydrolysis, NH
$ _4^+ $ and NO
$ _3^ - $ concentrations, NO
$ _2^ - $ accumulation, or immobilization. In contrast, the use of NBPT to inhibit urea hydrolysis was markedly effective for moderating the accumulation of NH
$ _4^+ $, which reduced immobilization and also controlled NH3 toxicity to nitrifying microorganisms that otherwise caused the accumulation of NO

Nitrogen and genotype effects on root growth and root survivorship of spring wheatJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science - Tập 176 Số 4 - Trang 561-571 - 2013

AbstractThe nitrogen (N) fertilization of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is important for stable and high grain yield. However, the effect of N on root growth and survivorship is poorly understood. The objectives of this study were (1) to determine the effect of varying N availability on the growth and survivorship of roots and (2) to deter...... hiện toàn bộ
Innovative methods in soil phosphorus research: A reviewJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science - Tập 178 Số 1 - Trang 43-88 - 2015

AbstractPhosphorus (P) is an indispensable element for all life on Earth and, during the past decade, concerns about the future of its global supply have stimulated much research on soil P and method development. This review provides an overview of advanced state‐of‐the‐art methods currently used in soil P research. These involve bulk and spatially resolved spectro...... hiện toàn bộ
Phosphorus bioavailability of biochars produced by thermo‐chemical conversionJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science - Tập 177 Số 1 - Trang 84-90 - 2014

AbstractRecycling of P is a common strategy in efficient use of P. The aims of our investigation were to study the P extractability of biochars produced by low temperature conversion and to determine the effect of soda application on low‐temperature conversion of organic compounds and the bioavailability of P to rye grass (Lolium perenne ...... hiện toàn bộ
Pharmaceutical antibiotic compounds in soils – a reviewJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science - Tập 166 Số 2 - Trang 145-167 - 2003
Sören Thiele‐Bruhn
AbstractAntibiotics are highly effective, bioactive substances. As a result of their consumption, excretion, and persistence, they are disseminated mostly via excrements and enter the soils and other environmental compartments. Resulting residual concentrations in soils range from a few μg upto g kg–1 and correspond to those found for pesticide...... hiện toàn bộ
Improving potassium acquisition and utilisation by crop plantsJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science - Tập 176 Số 3 - Trang 305-316 - 2013
Philip J. White
AbstractTo avoid loss of yield, crops must maintain tissue potassium (K) concentrations above 5–40 mg K (g DM)–1. The supply of K from the soil is often insufficient to meet this demand and, in many agricultural systems, K fertilisers are applied to crops. However, K fertilisers are expensive. There is interest, therefore, in reducing applicati...... hiện toàn bộ
Stabilization mechanisms of organic matter in four temperate soils: Development and application of a conceptual modelJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science - Tập 171 Số 1 - Trang 111-124 - 2008
Margit von Lützow, Ingrid Kögel‐Knabner, Bernard Ludwig, Egbert Matzner, Heinz Flessa, Paula Fernandes, Georg Guggenberger, Bernd Marschner, Karsten Kalbitz
AbstractBased on recent findings in the literature, we developed a process‐oriented conceptual model that integrates all three process groups of organic matter (OM) stabilization in soils namely (1) selective preservation of recalcitrant compounds, (2) spatial inaccessibility to decomposer organisms, and (3) interactions of OM with minerals and metal ions. The mode...... hiện toàn bộ
Isolation and identification of rapeseed (Brassica napus) cultivars for potential higher and lower Cd accumulationJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science - Tập 181 Số 4 - Trang 479-487 - 2018

AbstractCadmium (Cd) as a non‐essential toxic metal has become one of the seriously environmental problems. Overload of Cd into plant shoots, particularly the addible parts (i.e., grains), jeopardizes crop production and food safety. Isolating and identifying genotypic variations in Cd accumulation of rapeseed (Brassica napus...... hiện toàn bộ
