After its latest inclusion of 49 thousand new references, the Life, Earth and Health Sciences Magazine EurekaMag.com now provides 36.97 million references including 11.48 million summaries in the basic and applied biological, geographical and agricultural sciences. This content base includes 2,075 newly published references on aluminium geochemistry & phytotoxicity in acidic soils.

Mannheim, Germany (PRWEB) July 16, 2013

EurekaMag.com has newly published two thousand references on aluminium geochemistry and phytotoxicity in acidic soils. Aluminium (Al) is a major element in the soil and builds stable complexes with oxygen and silicate in neutral and weakly acidic soil. When the soil pH is, however, lower than 5.0, Al becomes soluble in soil water and is absorbed by plant roots. Such absorbed Al inhibits root elongation severely and almost immediately. Aluminium interferes with cell division in roots, decreases root respiration and uptake and use of water and nutrients, particularly calcium and phosphorous and metabolic pathway. Aluminium toxicity is the major factor limiting crop productivity on acid soils, which comprise up to 40% of the world's arable lands. A large majority of the newly published entries are included in the site's Research Category which covers numerous references to aluminium geochemistry & phytotoxicity in acidic soils. The Life, Earth and Health Sciences Research Section 8 features the bibliographic details of more than 1,000 science articles on agronomic studies of aluminium in plants and soils.

The Life, Earth and Health Sciences Research Chapter 7003 contains a few hundred of the newly published references on aluminium geochemistry & phytotoxicity and particularly those on growth and nutrient uptake of plants with different sensitivity to Al. Among many others, it features aluminium effects on forest stands growing on acid soils in the Ardennes, aluminium effects on growth nutrient net uptake and transport in three rice cultivars with different sensitivity to aluminium, aluminium induced callose formation in root tips of Norway spruce, aluminum detoxification with green manures, aluminum effects on calcium fluxes at the root apex of aluminum tolerant and aluminum sensitive wheat cultivars, aluminum effects on nitrate uptake and reduction in sorghum, aluminum in acidic soils and its phytotoxicity, and aluminum partitioning in intact roots of aluminum tolerant and aluminum sensitive wheat (Triticum aestivum).

The Life, Earth and Health Sciences Website EurekaMag.com was launched in 1998 and has become a comprehensive publisher of references in biology, in the applied life sciences agriculture, horticulture and forestry, in the earth sciences, in the environmental sciences, and in the health sciences. After its latest inclusion of 49,616 new references beginning from Life, Earth and Health Sciences Research Chapter 36924, it currently contains a total of 36,973,099 bibliographic references from as early as the beginning of the 20th century. 11,475,929 of these entries feature a summary or abstract of their science content. Besides a new mobile portal for mobile devices, the site maintains RSS feeds and accounts at Twitter and Facebook. Reported by PRWeb 1 day ago.
