Sentences with phrase «plant tissue nutrient»

The study was designed to determine the impact of two organically approved liquid fertilizer sources applied through fertigation on plant growth, yield, fruit quality, and soil and plant tissue nutrient status of «Marion» and «Black Diamond» blackberry grown in an organic production system.

Not exact matches

This is probably a healthier situation for plant growth in that an oversupply of a nutrient such as nitrogen can lead to lush, succulent tissue growth which is more vulnerable to fungal and bacterial entry, more appealing to some insects, and more prone to stress injury from heat, cold, or drought.

The xylem (the scientific name for wood) is the non-living tissue of a plant that transports water and nutrients from the soil to the stems and leaves.

Phloem tissue is responsible for translocating nutrients and sugars (carbohydrates), which are produced by the leaves, to areas of the plant that are metabolically active (requiring sugars for energy and growth).

The researchers suspected that the ants provide D. major with nutrients in return for shelter To test this idea, they looked at the ratios of different isotopes of carbon and nitrogen in the plant's tissues.

The transformed cells are transplanted onto plant regeneration medium, which contains nutrients and hormones that cause the tissue to grow into a tiny new plant.

Exploiting habitats that are often or mostly out of water required new symbiotic relationships to contain and move water, including the fusion of some fungi and algae to create lichen in communities with bacteria that survive extreme desiccation on land while breaking down rock into soil, and the association of mycorrhizae fungi and the root tissue of new vascular plants — culminating in trees that pump water high into the air — to exchange mineral nutrients (e.g., phosphorus) and usable «fixed» nitrogen from the atmosphere for photosynthetic products.

Response of plant nutrient stoichiometry to fertilization varies with plant tissues in a tropical forest, Scientific Reports, 5:14605, DOI: 10.1038 / srep14605.

By allowing explicit calculations on wood - litter production, these results potentially enable more explicit modelling of woody tissues in ecosystems worldwide, with implications for the build - up of flammable fuel, nutrient cycling, and understanding of plant growth.

It is formulated with 45 plant - based nutrients including acai, pomegranate, grapeseed and rosehip powders that support healthy skin elasticity and horsetail extract for healthy, strong connective tissue.

The vascular plants (or tracheophytes) are characterized by the presence of vascular tissue (xylem and phloem) for structural support and for long - distance movement of water and nutrients throughout the plant body.

Vascular plants have lignified tissue and specialized structures termed xylem and phloem, which transport water, minerals, and nutrients upward from the roots and return sugars and other photosynthetic products.
