Tillage and Residue Management Impact on Microbial and Nematode Abundance Under Diverse Rice-Based Crop** Systems in Calcareous and Non-calcareous Floodplain Soils
Switching from conventional to conservation agriculture (CA) practices may affect the soil microbial community; however, such information in...

Effect of acidifying amendments on P availability in calcareous soils
Phosphorus (P) reactions in calcareous soils limit the concentration of P in the soil solution for plant uptake. Calcareous soils with high calcium...

Isolation, screening, characterization, and optimization of bacteria isolated from calcareous soils for siderophore production
The most effective agricultural practice to prevent iron deficiency in calcareous soils is fertilizing with synthetic chelates. These compounds are...

Comparison of Struvite as a P Source with Chemical Fertilizers and Evaluation of Additional Contribution to Growth and Mineral Nutrition of Lettuce Grown on Acidic and Calcareous Soils
This study investigated the effects of two different struvites (Struvite1 (STR1) and Struvite2 (STR2)) with different P amounts on the P nutrition of...

Synthesis, Characterization and Controlled Release Pattern of Novel Fe-Containing Nanoclay Polymer Composites (Fe-NCPC) in Non-calcareous and Calcareous Soil
Iron deficiency is a widespread phenomenon globally. Iron sulphate (FeSO 4 ·7H 2 O) reported to have very low use efficiency (2–5%). Hence, technological...

Calcifuge and soil-indifferent Proteaceae from south-western Australia: novel strategies in a calcareous habitat
Background and aimsProteaceae are a prominent plant family in south-western Australia. Most Proteaceae are ‘calcifuge’, occurring exclusively on old...

Effect of Low-Molecular-Weight Organic Acids on the Release of Phosphorus from Amended Calcareous Soils: Experimental and Modeling
Calcareous soils usually exhibit low phosphorus availability. Low-molecular-weight organic acids are known to increase the release of phosphorus, but...

Differential phosphorus acquisition strategies of nine cover crop species grown in a calcareous and a decalcified chernozem
Background and aimsCover crop** is a strategy to increase soil phosphorus (P) use efficiency in agroecosystems. We investigated adaptations on P...

Evolution of salt tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana on siliceous soils does not confer tolerance to saline calcareous soils
PurposeAlkaline salinity constrains crop yield. Previously, we observed local adaptation of Arabidopsis thaliana to saline-siliceous soils (pH ≤ 7)...

Heterogeneous co-supplies of phosphorus, sulfur and carbon enhance phosphorus availability by improving rhizosphere processes in a calcareous soil
Background and aimsPhosphorus (P) availability in calcareous soils is limited. Acidifying the soil by adding sulfur (S) or enhancing microbial...
