Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePotential Radiological Impacts of Phosphate Fertilizers Brands used in Southeast, NigeriaKenneth K. Agwu, Mark C. Okeji, Paschal TchokossaThe radionuclides present in phosphate fertilizers used in Southeast Nigeria were identified and their activity concentration determined to assess the potential radiological impact on the environment due to fertilizer applications in agricultural farm lands. The radioactivity concentration of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in the fertilizer samples range from 13.22±1.83 to 87.37±8.98 Bqkg-1 for 226Ra (mean: 31.71±5.4 Bqkg-1), 0.78±0.07 to 47.65±6.05 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 12 May 2017 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPossibilities of Stabilizing Soil Biological Activity by Treating Seeds With a Biological Preparation Based on Phosphate Mobilizing Bacteria in the Conditions of the Aral Sea Region of KazakhstanZhanar Zhumadilova, Laura Tokhetova, Shorabayev Yerik et al.This study examined the effect of Phosphate-Mobilizing Bacteria (PMB) as a pre-sowing treatment for forage crop seeds. The objective was to assess the potential of these bacterial biopreparations to improve both crop productivity and soil fertility. Research methods included agrochemical, microbiological, and conventional field analyses. The findings revealed that pre-sowing seed treatment with PMB increased crop yields by 7.4% to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 24 Sep 2026 · 642 accessesView PDFCite

Thailand Concerning Cowdung Supplementation and Arbuscula Mycorrhizal InoculationEvitayani, Lili Warly, Armina Fariani et al.Manure usually consists of a mixture of livestock feces and urine, which also contains macro elements such as Nitrogen (N), Phosphate (P), Potassium (K), Magnesium (Mg), and Calcium (Ca) as well as the microelement Manganese (Mn). This study aims to determine the in-vitro influence of the digestibility of dry matter, digestibility of organic matter, crude protein digestibility, and crude fiber … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 22 Jul 2023 · 5,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Cocoa Pod Husk Compost Produced Using Rot Fungi on the Growth of Cocoa SeedlingsLaode Asrul, Iradhatullah Rahim, Tutik Kuswinanti et al.Rot fungi have the ability to decompose organic materials into simple compounds or elements as nutrients for plants. In the process, rot fungi produce secondary metabolites and absorb phosphate from their substrates so that the phosphate become available to plants. The purpose of this study was to identify the species of rot fungi isolated from decaying cocoa stems and to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 3 Feb 2018 · 8,501 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVING PHOSPHORUS NUTRITION OF COTTONWalter B. Gordon, Larry Murphy, Pawel WiatrakCrop recovery of applied Phosphorus (P) fertilizer can be low, especially during season of low soil temperature, which decreases plant root growth and nutrient uptake. The H2PO4- or HPO4-2 anions readily react with soil cations such as Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), iron (Fe) and Aluminum (Al) to produce various phosphate compounds of very limited water solubility. Specialty Fertilizer Products (SFP), … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 10 May 2014 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF RHIZOBIA AND PLANT GROWTH-PROMOTING RHIZOBACTERIA AND THEIR EFFECTS ON GROWTH OF RICE SEEDLINGSK. Z. Tan, O. Radziah, M. S. Halimi et al.Biofertilizer is a relatively safer, environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach as an alternative to reduce chemical fertilizer usage. The selection of bacterial strains with multiple beneficial characteristics are important to maximize the effectiveness on the host plant. Due to aforementioned interest, several Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacterial (PGPR) and rhizobial strains were isolated from rice and legume roots, respectively, at four locations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 15 Apr 2014 · 10,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVING PHOSPHORUS NUTRITION OF CORNWalter B. Gordon, Larry Murphy, Pawel WiatrakPhosphorus (P) generally occurs in soils as the anions H2PO4- or HPO4-2 depending on soil pH. These anions readily react with soil cations such as calcium, magnesium, iron and aluminum to produce various phosphate compounds of very limited water solubility. Crop recovery of applied phosphate fertilizer can be quite low during the season of application. In addition, the large amounts … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 18 Mar 2014 · 7,446 accessesView PDFCite
