Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparison of Carbon and Selected Macronutrients in Forest-Floor Litter of Rehabilitated and Secondary ForestsMelvin Ku Kin Kin, Japar Sidik Bujang, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed et al.Problem statement: Forest rehabilitation with human assistance by species selection and management shortens the time needed to rehabilitate degraded land as compared to natural succession. Empirical data on litter nutrient contents of tropical rain forests in Southeast Asia have been established, however it is limited to rehabilitated degraded lands. The objective of this study was to determine contents of carbon … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 20 Aug 2011 · 7,740 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleClassification and Spatial Distribution of Macronutrients and Micronutrients in the Soil of Greenhouse Sweet CherriesLijin Qin, Qingxiang Wang, Yongli Lv et al.To understand the distribution of trace elements in the soil of greenhouse sweet cherry, using soil samples from solar greenhouse sweet cherry orchards in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia as the object, the trace element indicators in the soil of different sweet cherry production areas were analyzed using the "S" shaped 5-point sampling method. Descriptive statistics were conducted. The results showed that … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 9 Oct 2025 · 2,174 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Characterization of Phosphate Solubilizing Activity of Endophytic Fungi from Zingiberaceous SpeciesErman Munir, Yurnaliza, Anisa Lutfia, Adrian HartantoPhosphorus (P), which is one of the less available soil macronutrients, is important for plant growth and metabolism. A promising strategy to increase the P uptake by plants is by introducing Phosphate-Solubilizing Microorganisms (PSM) into the P-deficient regions, to convert P into soluble forms through organic acids secreted by the PSMs. The aim of this study was to characterize the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2022 · 6,651 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMAGE SEGMENTATION WITH ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK FOR NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY IN COTTON CROPMaicon A. Sartin, Alexandre C.R. Da Silva, Claudinei KappesThe leaf analysis in a crop can present the need of a nutrient determined in the plant. The macronutrients deficiency in the cotton crop can be identified by specific type of colors variation by leaves images. Early identification of macronutrients deficiency can help in the growing suitable of the crop and reduce the use of agricultural inputs. This study investigates … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 4 Feb 2014 · 6,800 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Dietary Polydextrose on Feces Consistency and Macronutrient Digestibility in Healthy DogsK. Vasupen, C. Yuangklang, A. C. Beynen, A. W.C. EinerhandProblem statement: There is evidence that the addition of 3% STA-LITE® polydextrose to a dry food reduces clinical signs of osteoarthritis in dogs. For the application of polydextrose as functional ingredient of dog foods, information as to its impact on the acceptance of food, feces consistency, fecal odor and digestibility of macronutrients and minerals is required. Approach: A feeding experiment … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2011 · 8,520 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Role of Sulfuric Acid In Production of Multicomponent Fertilizers From Renewable SourcesHelena Górecka, Henryk Górecki, Katarzyna Chojnacka et al.The paper discusses the possibility of using renewable sources: slaughter wastes and wood ashes in the production of NPK fertilizers. The content of macronutrients, micronutrients and toxic elements in these materials was reported. In the present work, poultry feathers were used as fertilizer source of nitrogen, animal bones as the source of phosphorus and wood ash as the source of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,374 accessesView PDF Cite
