Book Synopsis Soil Sampling, Preparation, and Analysis, Second Edition by : Kim H. Tan
Download or read book Soil Sampling, Preparation, and Analysis, Second Edition written by Kim H. Tan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2005-04-29 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As with the highly popular original, this new edition of Soil Sampling, Preparation, and Analysis provides students with an exceptionally clear description of the sampling and analysis methods most commonly used in modern soil laboratories around the world. What sets it apart as the first choice of professors is the grounding it offers in fundamental principles, professional protocols, and specific procedures. What makes it especially popular with students is that it spares them from having to tote large volumes for the sake of a page or two. Fully revised to introduce the latest advances, the text is lucidly illustrated with original results garnered from years of hands-on experiments conducted by the author and his students. In response to requests from active users of the first edition, these new features have been added: § Three new chapters on soil and plant test methods § A focus on testing and analysis limited to edaphology, as opposed to edaphology and pedology as a whole in the ecosystem § Information and insight reflecting the author’s expertise on electron microscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance § Extensive revisions and expansion to include recent advances and shifting interests in the field Soil Sampling, Preparation, and Analysis is divided into three sections: the first covers principles of soil sampling, sources of errors, and variability of results; the second explains common procedures for extraction and analysis in soil plant testing; and the last covers instrumentation. While Professor Tan designed and further honed the book to serve the practical needs of students, with this volume he also provides them with an essential reference that will continue to serve them throughout their training and into their careers.

Book Synopsis Soil and Plant Analysis for Forest Ecosystem Characterization by : Daniel John Vogt
Download or read book Soil and Plant Analysis for Forest Ecosystem Characterization written by Daniel John Vogt and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-03-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides an overview of physical, chemical and biological methods used to analyze soils and plant tissue using an ecosystem perspective. The current emphasis on climate change has recognized the importance of including soil carbon as part of our carbon budgets. Methods to assess soils must be ecosystem based if they are to have utility for policy makers and managers wanting to change soil carbon and nutrient pools. Most of the texts on soil analyis treat agriculture and not forest soils and these methods do not transfer readily to forests because of their different chemistry and physical properties. This manual presents methods for soil and plant analysis with the ecosystem level approach that will reduce the risk that poor management decisions will be made in forests. This manual was intended for the instructors that teach students soil and plant analyses; however it can also be used by the research laboratories and by environmental scientists.The laboratory procedures in this manual are outlined in easy-to-follow steps and frequently accompanied with examples of calculations, questions to answer, and also a blank data sheet to use. These methods used in this manual can be used on soil and plant tissues found in agricultural, horticulture, forestry, urban, and natural lands.
Book Synopsis Soil and Plant Analysis by : C.S.Piper
Download or read book Soil and Plant Analysis written by C.S.Piper and published by Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overall motivation for writing this book is to meet ever increasing need for developing basic philosophy of soil and plant analysis as a key to sustained productivity. This is probably the first attempt to present methods of physical and chemical analysis of soil together with plant analysis in a single volume, so as to meet teaching requirements, to carry out routine soil and plant analysis for advisory purposes and to conduct highly specific basic research. The scope of the book is such as to include non-routine methods of analysing soils and plants and to discuss special techniques and apparatus. Each chapter commances with a brief resume of the theoretical background of the particular analysis. Recommended analytical methods have been chosen with the facilities of the average soil and plant analysis laboratories in mind. Preference has been given to procedures having simple apparatus and commonly available reagents. Analytical methods are also dealt with pre-requisites for proper sampling, practical tips for ensuring accurate, precise and trouble free analysis but not the least the interpretation of results. The book is expected to find wide readership amongst UG and PG students and researchers in India and abroad.
Book Synopsis From soil to seed: micronutrient movement into and within the plant by : Raul Antonio Sperotto
Download or read book From soil to seed: micronutrient movement into and within the plant written by Raul Antonio Sperotto and published by Frontiers E-books. This book was released on 2014-11-19 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In all living organisms, essential micronutrients are cofactors of many ubiquitous proteins that participate in crucial metabolic pathways, but can also be toxic when present in excessive concentrations. In order to achieve correct homeostasis, plants need to control uptake of metals from the environment, their distribution to organs and tissues, and their subcellular compartmentalization. They also have to avoid deleterious accumulation of metals and metalloids such as Cd, As and Al. These multiple steps are controlled by their transport across various membrane structures and their storage in different organelles. Thus, integration of these transport systems required for micronutrient trafficking within the plant is necessary for physiological processes to work efficiently. To cope with the variable availability of micronutrients, plants have evolved an intricate collection of physiological and developmental processes, which are under tight control of short- and long-range signaling pathways. Understanding how plants perceive and deal with different micronutrient concentrations, from regulation to active transport, is important to completing the puzzle of plant metal homeostasis. This is an essential area of research, with several implications for plant biology, agriculture and human nutrition. There is a rising interest in developing plants that efficiently mobilize specific metals and prosper in soils with limited micronutrient availability, as well as those that can selectively accumulate beneficial micronutrients in the edible parts while avoiding contaminants such as Cd and As. However, there is still an important gap in our understanding of how nutrients reach the seeds and the relative contribution of each step in the long pathway from the rhizosphere to the seed. Possible rate-limiting steps for micronutrient accumulation in grains should be the primary targets of biotechnological interventions aiming at biofortification. Over the last 10 years, many micronutrient uptake- and transport-related processes have been identified at the molecular and physiological level. The systematic search for mutants and transcriptional responses has allowed analysis of micronutrient-signaling pathways at the cellular level, whereas physiological approaches have been particularly useful in describing micronutrient-signaling processes at the organ and whole-plant level. Large-scale elemental profiling using high-throughput analytical methodologies and their integration with both bioinformatics and genetic tools, along with metal speciation, have been used to decipher the functions of genes that control micronutrients homeostasis. In this research topic, we will follow the pathway of metal movement from the soil to the seed and describe the suggested roles of identified gene products in an effort to understand how plants acquire micronutrients from the soil, how they partition among different tissues and subcellular organelles, and how they regulate their deficiency and overload responses. We also highlight the current work on heavy metals and metalloids uptake and accumulation, the studies on metal selectivity in transporters and the cross-talk between micro and macronutrients. Thus, we believe a continued dialogue and sharing of ideas amongst plant scientists is critical to a better understanding of metal movement into and within the plant.
