Soil samples were collected and analyzed 2.5 years (3 growing seasons) after ash application.

Specifically we hypothesized that treatment of tomato plants with A. chroococcum 76A could improve plant performance under salinity stress and sub-optimal nutrient regimen.Inoculation of Micro Tom tomato plants with A. chroococcum 76A increased numerous growth parameters and also conferred protective effects under both moderate (50\u00a0mM NaCl) and severe (100\u00a0mM NaCl) salt stresses. These benefits were mostly observed under reduced nutrient regimen and were less appreciable in optimal nitrogen conditions. Therefore, the efficiency of A. chroococcum 76A was found to be dependent on the nutrient status of the rhizosphere. The expression profiles of LEA genes indicated that A. chroococcum 76A treated plants were more responsive to stress stimuli when compared to untreated controls. However, transcript levels of key nitrogen assimilation genes revealed that the optimal nitrogen regimen, in combination with the strain A. chroococcum 76A, may have saturated plant's ability to assimilate nitrogen.Roots inoculation with A. chroococcum 76A tomato promoted tomato plant growth, stress tolerance and nutrient assimilation efficiency under moderate and severe salinity.

This experiment analysed the optimal fertiliser composition to grow viola using recovered fertilisers in a greenhouse trial under controlled conditions. Well-rooted viola plugs were grown in a standard peat-based growing medium. Using recycled sources of P and N as struvite and potassium struvite, ammonium sulphate, and ammonium nitrate, 14 fertiliser blends were prepared, tested, and compared with the slow-release commercial fertiliser Osmocote. Plants treated with ammonium nitrate showed healthy growth and optimal plant N concentrations. In contrast, most blends using the recovered ammonium sulphate resulted in an unacceptable increase of ammonium concentrations in the growing medium. The combination of ammonium sulphate and potassium sulphate caused an increase in the electrical conductivity in the growing medium, negatively affecting plant growth. However, blend 13 containing struvite, ammonium sulphate and potassium struvite expressed the best chemical composition with non-significant differences in the biomass from the positive controls, as it reduced the amount of potassium sulphate needed.

Therefore, it is important to qualify and to quantify the nutrient accumulation in the biomass of catch crop species. Since it was often described, that mixtures yield higher biomasses than pure stands of catch crops, we evaluated the nutrient scavenging potential of pure stands vs. mixtures. \nTest objects were the four species mustard, phacelia, bristle oat and Egyptian clover either grown in pure stands (sowing densities: mustard - 300, phacelia - 706, bristle oat - 588, Egyptian clover - 833) or in a 4-species mixture (sowing densities: mustard - 67, phacelia - 294, bristle oat - 53, Egyptian clover - 233). Additionally, a commercial mixture of the DSV with a higher species diversity called TerraLife MaisPro was included in the experiment. Their single-species nutrient accumulation was evaluated after 2.5 months of cultivation in total shoot material (dryed for 3 d at 80 \u00b0C and ground in a mill) obtained from two sites in Germany (Asendorf - Lower Saxony and Triesdorf - Bavaria), and at two initial starting points of the respective wheat-catch crop-maize long-term rotation (2015 and 2016) - in total 4 test environments. \nGenerally, nutrient concentrations in the shoot biomass often followed species-specific patterns, e.g. phacelia and oat which are described to have a shallow root system with a high amount of fine roots in the upper soil layers had consistently highest P and K concentrations, S, which is prone to leaching, was most concentrated in the cruciferous species mustard, Ca concentration was highest in phacelia but very low abundant in oat as grass species or Mg was highest in clover since photosynthesis rate must be kept high because biologically fixed N has to be incorporated into carbon skeletons. Increasing interspecific competition in the mix (at higher plant survival rates or at vigorous plant development) favored higher concentrations of several nutrients in some of the species, e.g. higher P concentration in phacelia when cultivated in the 4-species mix. Non-favorable conditions like less water availability led, against this, to higher N concentrations in clover likely due to the establishment of N fixation (Triesdorf 2015 and Asendorf 2016).\nHowever, total nutrient scavenging was largely influenced by the biomass formed by a catch crop variant. In this case, above-ground nutrient conservation capacities were mostly equally high in mustard, phacelia, partially oat and the mixed cultures. Only in one test environment (Triesdorf 2016) where quite loose pure stands established, the mixed cultivation offered a larger nutrient conservation capacity via the production of higher total biomass.", "formats": [{"name": "CSV"}], "keywords": ["Bodenbedeckung", "Bodennutzung", "Landwirtschaftliche Anlagen und Aquakulturanlagen", "Shoots", "Plant parts", "nutrient balance", "Avena", "Avena nuda", "Poaceae", "Mustard", "Sinapis alba", "Phacelia tanacetifolia", "Trifolium alexandrinum", "", "biomass", "biomass", "biomass", "biomass", "biomass", "biomass", "Elements", "Nitrogen", "Nitrogen content", "Phosphorus", "Carbon", "Magnesium", "Potassium", "Boron", "Aluminium", "Manganese", "Sulphur", "Zinc", "Iron", "Copper", "Calcium", "Catch cropping", "Crop rotation", "cropping systems", "Biological competition", "Interspecific competition", "Shoot biomass", "catch crops", "mineral elements", "macro elements", "micro elements", "C/N ratio", "plant nutrition", "ICP-OES", "EA", "opendata", "Boden"], "contacts": [{"name": "Heuermann, Diana", "organization": "Leibniz Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research (IPK) Gatersleben", "position": "Staff member (Molecular Plant Nutrition)", "roles": ["author"], "phones": [{"value": "0049394825514"}], "emails": [{"value": "heuermannd@ipk-gatersleben.de"}], "addresses": [{"deliveryPoint": ["Correnstra\u00dfe 3"], "city": "Stadt Seeland", "administrativeArea": "Saxony-Anhalt", "postalCode": "06466", "country": "Germany"}], "links": [{"href": null}]}, {"name": "Wir\u00e9n, Nicolaus von", "organization": "Leibniz Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research (IPK) Gatersleben", "position": "Department head", "roles": ["projectLeader"], "phones": [{"value": "0049 39482 5603"}], "emails": [{"value": "vonwiren@ipk-gatersleben.de"}], "addresses": [{"deliveryPoint": ["Correnstra\u00dfe 3"], "city": "Stadt Seeland", "administrativeArea": "Saxony-Anhalt", "postalCode": "06466", "country": "Germany"}], "links": [{"href": null}]}, {"name": "BonaRes Data Centre", "organization": "Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF)", "position": "Research Platform 'Data' - WG Geodata", "roles": ["publisher"], "phones": [{"value": "+49 33432 82 171"}], "emails": [{"value": "bonares-datenzentrum@zalf.de"}], "addresses": [{"deliveryPoint": ["Eberswalder Strasse 84"], "city": "M\u00fcncheberg", "administrativeArea": "Brandenburg", "postalCode": "15374", "country": "Germany"}], "links": [{"href": null}]}, {"organization": "Leibniz Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research (IPK) Gatersleben", "roles": ["contributor"]}], "title_alternate": "Nutrient accumulation in the biomass of catch crop species in pure stands vs. mix at the beginning of a wheat-catch crop-maize long-term rotation"}, "links": [{"href": "https://maps.bonares.de/mapapps/resources/apps/bonares/index.html?lang=en&doi=8d34ddab-2bc9-4288-869b-a4afdd68f0dd", "rel": "download"}, {"rel": "self", "type": "application/geo+json", "title": "8d34ddab-2bc9-4288-869b-a4afdd68f0dd", "name": "item", "description": "8d34ddab-2bc9-4288-869b-a4afdd68f0dd", "href": "https://repository.soilwise-he.eu/cat/collections/metadata:main/items/8d34ddab-2bc9-4288-869b-a4afdd68f0dd"}, {"rel": "collection", "type": "application/json", "title": "Collection", "name": "collection", "description": "Collection", "href": "https://repository.soilwise-he.eu/cat/collections/metadata:main"}], "time": {"date": "2019-06-21T00:00:00Z"}}, {"id": "PMC9579094", "type": "Feature", "geometry": null, "properties": {"updated": "2026-05-25T16:28:08Z", "type": "Journal Article", "created": "2022-06-22", "title": "Harnessing belowground processes for sustainable intensification of agricultural systems", "description": "Abstract <p>Increasing food demand coupled with climate change pose a great challenge to agricultural systems.

This review summarizes our present understanding of plant Zn homoeostasis. In                     Arabidopsis                     , about 1,900 Zn-binding metalloproteins require Zn as a cofactor.

The importance of cytosolic thiols in Zn buffering suggests that, besides elevated Zn influx, a more oxidized redox state is also predicted to cause elevated labile-bound Zn levels, consistent with the suppression of a Zn deficiency marker under oxidative stress.
