Impact of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers on Cry1Ac protein contents in transgenic cotton

Braz. j. biol; 83 (), 2023
Abstract Application of different fertilizers to check the efficiency of expression of Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) gene in one of the leading commercialized crops (cotton) against Lepidopteran species is of great concern. The expression of Cry protein level can be controlled by the improvement of nutrien...

Response of early-cycle common bean cultivars with carioca, black and speckled grains to top-dressing nitrogen fertilization

Biosci. j. (Online); 39 (), 2023
The aim was to evaluate the agronomic and qualitative attributes of early-cycle common bean cultivars with different grains types grains in response to top-dressing nitrogen (N) doses. The experiment was carried out using a randomized block design, in a split-plot scheme, with 4 replicates. The plots con...

Perspectivas de una producción sostenible en acuicultura multitrófica integrada (IMTA): una revisión

Rev. med. vet. zoot; 69 (1), 2022
RESUMEN La acuicultura tradicional se enfrenta a serios problemas medioambientales, particularmente por el uso de grandes volúmenes de agua, con las consecuentes descargas de efluentes ricos en nutrientes inorgánicos y partículas orgánicas. Un ejemplo claro de esto está en que del 20 al 30% del nitr...

Ramularia leaf spot and boll rot are affected differently by organic and inorganic nitrogen fertilization in cotton plants

Biosci. j. (Online); 38 (), 2022
Interaction among nitrogen fertilization using bovine manure, poultry manure, Jatropha curcas seed cake and urea, and the diseases Ramularia leaf spot (RLS) and Boll rot (BR), caused by Ramulariopsis pseudoglycines and Diplodia gossypina, respectively, in cotton plants (Gossypium hirsutum L.), was studie...

Water depths and nitrogen rates on sugarcane growth and dry biomass accumulation

Biosci. j. (Online); 38 (), 2022
Irrigation and soil fertilization management are essential agricultural practices that improve the growth and development of sugarcane plants and, consequently, increase their production capacity, which is important for sugar and alcohol productions. In this context, the objective of this work was to eva...

Ingreso de nitrógeno y fósforo al lago Atitlán (Guatemala) vía deposición atmosférica

Cienc. tecnol. salud; 9 (1), 2022
La deposición de nutrientes por vía atmosférica tiene graves impactos sobre la ecología de bosques y cuerpos de agua templados. Sin embargo, su importancia en cuerpos de agua neotropicales casi no ha sido estudiada. En este artículo se cuantifica la contribución de nitrógeno inorgánico disuelto (...

The application of ammonium sulphate and amino acid on cotton: effects on can improve growth, yield, quality and nitrogen absorption

Braz. j. biol; 82 (), 2022
A field study was carried out to determine the influence of foliage applied plant growth promoter and retardant in improving soil applied sulphur fertilizer use efficiency in cotton during two consecutive summers 2014 and 2015. Experimental trial comprised of three different sources of sulphur (ammonium ...

Ionic homeostasis, biochemical components and yield of Italian zucchini under nitrogen forms and salt stress

Braz. j. biol; 82 (), 2022
This research was carried out aiming at evaluating the effects of nitrate and ammonium ions on nutrient accumulation, biochemical components and yield of Italian zucchini (cv. Caserta) grown in a hydroponic system under salt stress conditions. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse utilizing an e...

Effects of nitrogen and phosphorus availability on the early growth of two congeneric pairs of savanna and forest species

Braz. j. biol; 82 (), 2022
In the tropical region, savannas and seasonal forests, both highly diverse biomes, occur side by side, under the same climate. If so, that mosaic cannot be explained solely by climatic variables, but also by fire, water availability and soil status. Nutrient availability in the soil, especially nitrogen ...
