Rearing insects is expected to dramatically increase during the next few years, and this will be associated with generating high quantities of frass (insect excreta). It necessary find solutions allowing efficient valorization these by-products before a major upscaling industry takes place. Therefore, study aims at investigating fertilizer potential frass. A pot experiment was established soil amended either mealworm (Tenebrio molitor L.) (10 Mg ha−1), mineral (NPK) equivalent nutrient level...

Terrestrial biogeochemistry of silicon Silicon is an important element in plant tissues and contributes to structural defenses against herbivores other stresses. However, the terrestrial biogeochemical cycling poorly understood, particularly relative importance geochemical biological mechanisms its regulation. de Tombeur et al. studied this question 2-million-year chronosequences soil vegetation Western Australia. Sites became progressively more weathered infertile as they aged, indicating...

Abstract The resource availability hypothesis predicts that plants adapted to infertile soils have high levels of anti‐herbivore leaf defences. This has been mostly explored for secondary metabolites such as phenolics, whereas it remains underexplored silica‐based We determined concentrations total phenols and silicon (Si) in growing along the 2‐million‐year Jurien Bay chronosequence, exhibiting an extreme gradient soil fertility. found nitrogen (N) limitation on young led a greater...

Organic phosphorus (OP) represents a significant fraction of the total P pool in soils. With increasing use organic resources to substitute mineral fertilizers and need recover from soil, it is pivotal gain insight into interactions between various OP forms soil minerals their consequences on availability. Here, we aim at elucidating extent which compounds adsorbed onto major may be available plants. Ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) plants were grown RHIZOtest devices presence including...

• This study sought to determine the main genomic regions that control zinc (Zn) hyperaccumulation in Arabidopsis halleri and examine genotype × environment effects on phenotypic variance. To do so, quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were mapped using an interspecific A. lyrata petraea F2 population. The progeny as well representatives of parental populations cultivated soils at two different Zn concentrations. A linkage map was constructed 70 markers. In both low high pollution treatments,...

Crops have different strategies to acquire poorly-available soil phosphorus (P) which are dependent on their architectural, morphological, and physiological root traits, but capacity enhance P acquisition varies with the type of fertilizer applied. The objective this study was examine how P-acquisition three main crops affected by application sewage sludges, compared a mineral fertilizer. We carried out 3-months greenhouse pot experiment response traits among wheat, barley canola in amended...

Background and aims -The occurrence of natural plant communities on Cu-enriched substrates over signifi cant areas the earth's surface is exceptional.In Katanga (D.R.Congo), outcrops copper-rich rocks are colonised by highly original communities.A number species have been proposed as possibly endemic to those sites.Here we revise taxonomic, phytogeographic conservational status these plants.Methods -Almost all herbarium materials supposed Cu-endemics available in BR BRLU revised relevant...
