    Absorption of foliar applied Zn is decreased in Zn deficient sunflower (Helianthus annuus) due to changes in leaf properties

    Despite the importance of foliar Zn fertilisation, it remains unclear how the Zn status of the plant itself influences the efficacy of foliar applied Zn, with this forming the focus of the present study.

    Growth and physiological responses of teak (Tectona grandis Linn. f.) clones to Ca, H and Al stresses in solution and acid soils

    The adaptation of teak to acid soils was tested by studying physiological responses of teak clones to varying concentrations of Ca, H (pH) and Al in solution and soil culture. Nutrient solutions containing 0.0...

    Farmer Involvement in the Development and Adoption of Improved Nutrient Management Technologies Using the Mother–Baby Trial Approach in Vertisols

    Research findings are often not adopted by farmers, for which many reasons have been suggested including poor communication between researchers and farmers. Mother–baby trials, involving on-farm participation ...

    Kinetics and mechanisms of cowpea root adaptation to changes in solution calcium

    Close regulation of cellular Ca in roots is required in the face of marked changes in soil solution Ca over time and space. This study’s aims were to quantify and gain insights into the ways in which roots res...

    Comparative hydrolysis and sorption of Al and La onto plant cell wall material and pectic materials

    Pectin, which is an important component of plant cell walls, strongly binds Al and this may play a role in expression of Al toxicity. Sorption of aluminium (Al) and lanthanum (La) from aqueous solutions onto p...

    Toxicity of Cd to signal grass (Brachiaria decumbens Stapf.) and Rhodes grass (Chloris gayana Kunth.)

    Given that Cd accumulates within plant tissues to levels that are toxic to animals, it is necessary to understand the role of plants in highly Cd-contaminated systems and their subsequent impact on the health ...
