    Selective enrichment of a pyrene degrader population and enhanced pyrene degradation in Bermuda grass rhizosphere

    Rhizosphere soil has a more diverse and active microbial community compared to nonvegetated soil. Consequently, the rhizosphere pyrene degrader population (PDP) and pyrene degradation may be enhanced compared ...

    Root growth and distribution of two short-season rice genotypes

    Root growth dynamics of lowland rice (Oryza sativa L.) throughout the growing season are poorly understood. A field experiment was conducted in 1987 to compare root growth and distribution of two rice genotypes a...
