Nutrient uptake by competing roots in soil
- Abstract:
-
It is postulated that definition of the availability of nutrients in soil t for plant uptake, will not be satisfactory, unless there is consideration of the plant's role as the absorber.
The amount of nutrients absorbed by plants from soil can be related to i) the initial concentration in the soil solution, ii) the capacity of the soil to maintain this concentration (the buffer power), iii) the ease of movement of the nutrient to an absorbing root, and iv) the plant demand. These i...
