Sentence examples for decreasing nutrients from inspiring English sources

Changes in pH above or lower than the optimum range adversely affected plants by damaging roots and decreasing nutrients availability (Altland 2006; Awang et al. 2009).

Accordingly, ML-9-induced lysosomal dysfunction leads to a decrease in autophagic flux thereby decreasing nutrients availability and promoting mTOR inhibition.

As agriculture is the major focus to reduce nutrient pollution in developed countries, solutions must account for decreasing nutrient pollution from animal manure as well as fertilizers.

Among Chase's achievements has been lowering nitrogen and phosphorus levels in dairy rations, thereby decreasing nutrient input into the environment while maintaining farm productivity.

The goal of the study was to estimate nutrient fluxes and determine the roles of plants (Phalaris arundinacea L). and microbial processes in decreasing nutrient pollution.

Results showed that subsurface-banded litter increased forage yield while decreasing nutrient (e.g. N and P) loss in runoff by at least 90% compared to surface-broadcast litter.

The third and fourth treatment groups tested the plants' responsiveness to dynamically- increasing and decreasing nutrient levels, respectively.

Similarly, when both roots grew under the same cumulative nutrient supply (DEC-AVE), plants developed greater root biomass under stationary average supply than under decreasing nutrient supply (Fig. 3).

Specifically, we predicted that, regardless of absolute resource availability, plants would preferentially allocate more resources to roots experiencing increasing nutrient availabilities and would discriminate against roots experiencing decreasing nutrient levels.

Thus, predator removal may decrease primary production by increasing guppy density (a top-down ecological effect), increasing consumption (a top-down evolutionary effect), and decreasing nutrient excretion (a bottom-up evolutionary effect).

Prolonged infection, even when asymptomatic, may cause subclinical chronic intestinal inflammation decreasing nutrient absorption and growth [ 31].
