Efficient Nitrogen Fertilizer Management to Improve Crop Production
Author: Li Wang
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2832549322
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
The improvement in global crop production over the past several decades has been associated with increased use of nitrogen (N) fertilizer. However, on average, less than 50% of the nitrogen added to croplands globally is harvested as crop product. Inefficient use of N fertilizer by crops will result in substantial agricultural nitrogen losses, posing threats to human and ecosystem health. Crop production must increase dramatically to meet the growing demand for food and biofuels projected for 2050. To boost crop yield with lowered environmental cost, the use of high-potential crop cultivars and efficient nitrogen fertilizer management are required. Recent advances in N management practices, such as enhanced-efficiency fertilizer use, improved manure management and machine deep placement of fertilizer have opened up new strategies to achieve improved crop production with N use reduction. A better understanding of the key crop traits and regulatory processes in response to N fertilizer managements will facilitate the increase in crop yield, N use efficiency while minimizing impacts on the environment.

Applicative and Ecological Aspects of Mycorrhizal Symbioses
Author: Mustafa Morsy
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2832557104
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
Mycorrhizal symbioses, a mutual association between plants and fungi plays a vital role in shaping and balancing the ecosystem of our planet. Approximately 80% of vascular plant species form mycorrhizal associations between their roots and soil borne fungi. Moreover, such association between plants and mycorrhizal fungi drastically affect the water and nutrient absorption by plant roots as well as provides protection against soil-borne pathogens. Hence, mycorrhizal symbioses might be advantageous for plants and our ecosystem under the drastically changing climate, which is threatening and distorting our ecosystem. Threats to our ecosystem should therefore encourage investigations and inventories of mycorrhizal diversity, function, and their application. Although numerous research has been done in this area, some issues remain unsolved because of the dramatic diversity of mycorrhizal associations along with their specificity in response to host plants especially under different climate and soil conditions in different ecosystems. Therefore, the collection under this research topic aim to provide up-to date applicative thorough studies on mycorrhizal symbioses through ecological perspective. For this Research Topic, we welcome both reviews and original articles that address the following research agenda but not limited to: - the diversity, structure and function of mycorrhizal fungi associated with plants, trees, crops in different ecosystems - the impacts of mycorrhizae on plant species under different environmental condition (i.e., warmer climate, drought) - the interaction between mycorrhizal fungi and plant species in soil with different water level, nutrients and salinity - the application of the mycorrhizae on regeneration and dynamics of ecosystems, as well as their biomass production
