Abstract:

The ceteris paribus assumption that all features are equal except the one(s) being examined limits the reliability of nutrient diagnosis and fertilizer recommendations. The objective is to review machine learning (ML) and compositional data analysis (CoDa) tools to make nutrient management feature specific. The average accuracy of the ML methods was 84% across the crops. The additive and orthogonal log ratios of CoDa reduce a D-parts soil composition to D-1 variables, alleviating redundancy in the predictive ML models. Using a Brazilian onion (Allium cepa) database, the combined CoDa and ML me

Abstract:

Tissue analysis is a useful tool for the nutrient management of fruit orchards. The mineral composition of diagnostic tissues expressed as nutrient concentration on a dry weight basis has long been used to assess the status of 'pure' nutrients. When nutrients are mixed and interact in plant tissues, their proportions or concentrations change relatively to each other as a result of synergism, antagonism, or neutrality, hence producing resonance within the closed space of tissue composition. Ternary diagrams and nutrient ratios are early representations of interacting nutrients in the compositio

Stoichiometric ratios of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) are considered indicators of nutrient status and ultimate ecosystem health. A detailed investigation of these elements in the leaves, branches, forest layer vegetation and soil, depending on stand age, was carried out. We investigated the effects of stand age (9-, 18-, 28-, and 48-year) on the aboveground plant parts (leaf, branch, herb, shrub, plant litter) and belowground pools (soil, roots) of P. massoniana plantations.

Abstract:

In light of global warming, the interaction between plant nutrient traits and soil nutrients is still unclear. Plant nutrient traits (e.g., N and P) and their stoichiometric relationships (N/P ratio) are essential for plant growth and reproduction. However, the specific role of soil nutrients in driving variation in plant nutrient traits remains poorly understood. Fifty natural Pinus tabuliformis forests were used as the research object to clarify the interaction between plant nutrient traits and soil nutrients.

Nutrients released through herbivore feces have the potential to influence plant-available nutrients and affect primary productivity. However, herbivore species use nutrients in set stoichiometric ratios that vary with body size. Such differences in the ratios at which nutrients are used leads to differences in the ratios at which nutrients are deposited through feces. Thus, local environmental factors that affect the average body size of an herbivore community (such as predation risk and food availability) influence the ratios at which fecal nutrients are supplied to plants.

Per cent concentration of N, P, Ca, Mn and Z n in different component of biomass had similar pattern in all the species. It was in the order of leaves > branches > stems and the concentration of K, Mg and Fe was in leaves > stems > branches. The N: P: K ratios of above ground biomass varied in different bamboo plant species (76–706 : 1 : 66–930). They showed that P was most limiting nutrient.

Abstract:

To shed light on the nature of nutrient limitation in carnivorous plant communities, we collected data on foliar nutrient concentrations and ratios from three Nepenthes species and one natural hybrid growing in peat swamp forests of southern Borneo. Due to their low foliar nitrogen concentrations and very low nitrogen:phosphorus ratios, our data strongly suggest that these species are limited by nitrogen availability.

Abstract:

The internal correlation of plant, litter and soil stoichiometric characteristics and their responses to the environment are helpful for revealing nutrient cycling mechanisms. However, few studies have assessed the nutrient relationship between plant, litter and soil and nutrient stock along elevational gradients, which limit the understanding of nutrient relationships in the ecosystem. To gain insight into the forces of nutrient stock and its stoichiometric ecological characteristics along the elevational gradients in forest ecosystem, we investigated the carbon (C), nitrogen (N) phosphorus (

Abstract:

Through this study, the most suitable fertilization ratio, amount and frequency were determined, providing a scientific reference for further fertilization management for Magnolia wufengensis (Magnoliaceae) seedlings. Fertilization is an important cultivation and management measure to maintain forest seedling health and rapid growth. However, improper fertilization can also have unexpected effects: inhibiting seedling growth, increasing the cost of production and contaminating the environment. Thus, to explore the most suitable fertilization treatment for Magnolia wufengensis growth, one-year-

Abstract:

Urban green spaces can be important habitats for soil, plant, and pollinator diversity and the complementary ecosystem functions they confer. Most studies tend to investigate the relationships between plant diversity with either soil or pollinator diversity, but establishing their relationship across habitat types could be important for optimising ecosystem service provision via alternative management (for instance, urban meadows in place of short amenity grass). Here, we investigate soil–plant–pollinator relationships across urban grass and meadow habitats through a range of measured biodiver

We examined 90 dry tropical tree species growing on contrasting soil types (relatively infertile Ultisol and more fertile Inceptisol) for leaf traits such as leaf habit, specific leaf mass (SLM, leaf dry mass per leaf area), leaf chemistry (nutrient concentrations and C/N ratios), and nutrient resorption. Across the species, SLM ranged from 4.06 to 15.74 mg·cm2 in mature leaves and from 2.60 to 15.12 mg·cm2 in senesced leaves. Mature leaf N and P concentrations varied from 0.86% to 4.11% and 0.13% to 0.21%, respectively. Senesced leaf N concentrations varied from 0.49% to 1.90% and P from 0.

Abstract:

Belowground herbivory under nutrient-poor conditions is known to significantly decrease plant biomass and root:shoot ratios. However, the mechanisms behind the changes in belowground plant–herbivore interactions that occur under different nutrient conditions remain unclear. We performed a pot experiment using Lolium perenne L. and the third-instar larva of Popillia japonica Newman. The experiment used a three-way factorial randomized-block design; the three factors were nutrient amount (rich/poor), nutrient heterogeneity (homogeneous/heterogeneous), and belowground herbivore (present/absent).

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of various NH4+/NO3− ratios in a nutrient solution on the growth and nitrogen uptake of Chinese kale under hydroponic conditions. The four NH4+/NO3− ratios in the nutrient solution were CK (0/100), T1 (10/90), T2 (25/75), and T3 (50/50). An appropriate NH4+/NO3− ratio (10/90, 25/75) promoted the growth of Chinese kale. T2 produced the highest fresh and dry weight among treatments, and all indices of seedling root growth were the highest under T2. A high NH4+/NO3− ratio (50/50) promoted the growth of Chinese kale seedlings at the early stage bu

Abstract Containerized crape myrtle (Lagerstroemia indica x fauriei ‘Tonto’) plants were grown over a 9-month period using complete nutrient solutions, except during overwintering, that differed in N concentration: 15, 30, 60, 120, 210, and 300 mg/liter. Plant shoot biomass, leaf area and canopy diameter increased with applied N concentrations ([N]a) up to 60 mg/liter, but higher levels caused significant depressions in all these parameters. Root biomass and plant height were depressed linearly with increases in [N]a. Regardless of final plant biomass, increases in [N]a significantly favored s

Abstract:

Many areas in India, including dryland areas, are under stress from two main obstacles to agricultural output, namely, inadequate soil nutrients and a scarcity of water. In most rainfed regions, except for a few places that can conduct irrigation, low precipitation levels and their erratic distribution usually result in soil water deficiency which leads to water as well as the instances of nutritional stress. Hence, in sustainable agricultural production systems, soil water and nutrient stress are major concerns. In crop production systems, the interplay between water and nutrients might yield

Zucchini (Cucurbita pepo L.) is a widely cultivated vegetable that plays a significant role in global food production. Its yield and nutritional composition are influenced by various agronomic factors, including the availability and balance of essential nutrients. Among these, the cationic ratio of potassium (K+), calcium (Ca2+), and magnesium (Mg2+) in the nutrient solution is critical for plant growth and productivity due to their interactive effects on absorption and transport. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of different K+/Ca2++Mg2+ ratios on the yield and mineral c
