Synergism and antagonisms between nutrients induced by copper toxicity in grapevine rootstocks: Monocropping vs. intercropping
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2019)The long-term use of Cu-containing fungicides contaminates vineyards soils, which can induce Cu toxicity and nutrient imbalances in several plant species. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of Cu toxicity on ... -
Azospirillum brasilense inoculation counteracts the induction of nitrate uptake in maize plants
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2019)Nitrogen (N) represents one of the limiting factors for crop growth and productivity and to date has been widely supplied via external application of fertilizers. However, the use of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria ... -
The potential of two different Avena sativa L. cultivars to alleviate Cu toxicity
(Academic Press, 2019)Agronomic strategies as intercropping might be applied to reduce plant-available copper (Cu) in Cu-contaminated soils. Thus, our aim was to characterize two different oat cultivars, Avena sativa L. cv. Fronteira and cv. ... -
Phytotoxicity alleviation by bacterial species isolated from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contaminated sites
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2019)The increasing industrialization has led to a high accumulation of xenobiotic contaminants in the natural environments. Most frequently, such pollutants include petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ... -
Role of Azospirillum brasilense in triggering different Fe chelate reductase enzymes in cucumber plants subjected to both nutrient deficiency and toxicity
(ELSEVIER FRANCE-EDITIONS SCIENTIFIQUES MEDICALES ELSEVIER, 2019)Azospirillum brasilense was reported to up-regulate iron (Fe) uptake mechanisms, such as Fe reduction and rhizosphere acidification, in both Fe sufficient and deficient cucumber plants (Cucumis sativus L.). Strategy I ...
