Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSelected Heavy Metals as Indices of Atmospheric Pollution in African Locust Bean (Parkia biglobosa) Tree BarksOlatunde S. Olatunji, Oladele Osibanjo, Olalekan S. Fatoki et al.Metallurgical industries are pollution “hot spots” for emission of dust, particulates of heavy metals and gaseous contaminants at levels that can be injurious to man and environment. The atmospheric levels of selected heavy metals around Ajaokuta Steel Company Nigeria were assessed using barks of Parkia biglobosa trees. The tree barks were randomly collected during wet and dry seasons, sorted and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2016 · 7,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhosphorus Availability Modulates Bradyrhizobium japonicum’s Impact on Soil Micribial Biomass and Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) Yield in Lubumbashi Tropical SoilsBen Tshibuyi Kasu-Bandi et al.Tropical soils in sub-Saharan Africa exhibit low fertility, high acidity, and limited Phosphorus (P) availability, a key nutrient for agricultural productivity and the sustainability of cropping systems. This deficiency, exacerbated by the strong fixation of P in acidic soils, not only limits plant growth but also the efficiency of the nitrogen-fixing symbiosis between soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) and Bradyrhizobium … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 13 May 2026 · 1,980 accessesView PDFCite
