Sentence examples for uptake plants from inspiring English sources

With respect to P uptake, plants only have direct access to dissolved phosphate [43], which is replenished by slow diffusion.

This implies that, for similar rates of N uptake, plants would need to partition a larger share of biomass to roots (or mycorrhizal hyphae) when N is available as organic N, compared with conditions when NO3− is the dominant N source.

Besides optimising the physiology of root P uptake, plants may also increase the availability of P in the rhizosphere by releasing specialized enzymes, known as phosphatases, which hydrolyse soluble organic P derived from soil organic matter to ortho-P for plant uptake [ 55].

Water uptake, plant growth rates and soil salinity were monitored over a 27 month period.

In the first experiment, using five plant species varying in Si uptake, plant species with greater Si uptake, in particular grass species, showed higher pH (NaF) and CuCl2-extractable Al in their root-zone soils, suggesting that plant Si uptake increases the amount of active Al in soil.

The authors plan to examine coupling of biomass yields and plant nitrogen uptake with plant population and applied nitrogen in a future publication.

Consequently, many of these extractions only show a relatively poor correlation with plant solute uptake or plant growth response.

The water which is available for uptake by plants is a major factor for plant growth.

Improving infiltration and water-holding capacity, for example, can significantly reduce irrigation water needs, lessen dust pollution, and improve nutrient uptake by plants, which can reduce input costs, and reduce plant stress, disease and pest pressure.

Gold NP uptake by plants depends upon various factors such as their type, size, surface coating, and plant species.

Studying the copper uptake of plants at CHESS.
