Book Synopsis Sulphur and Nitrogen Fertilization of Spring Wheat by : Hanna Klikocka
Download or read book Sulphur and Nitrogen Fertilization of Spring Wheat written by Hanna Klikocka and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a negative sulphur balance in the arable soils of Poland due to restrictions on SO2 emissions, intensification of agricultural production, and decreased consumption of natural and mineral fertilizers. Sulphur is an essential element for the growth and development of crop plants. It has an important physiological role and protects the plant against diseases and pests. Sulphur deficiency is detrimental to the vigour of the plant and its resistance to stress and it reduces yield. "Sulphur and nitrogen fertilization of spring wheat" is a book which presents the effect of fertilization with nitrogen and sulphur on the yield and quality of spring wheat grain. It also presents the content and accumulation of carbon, nitrogen and sulphur in selected growth phases of spring wheat and proposes a method of additional sulphur and nitrogen application during critical stages. As Polish agriculture changes over to an integrated production system, it is proposed that the variant of 80 kg N/ha in conjunction with 50 kg S/ha should be recommended for use in production systems of spring wheat.

Book Synopsis The Impact of Sulphur on the Breadmaking Quality of Canadian Western Red Spring Wheat in Western Canada by : Christopher J. H. Unger
Download or read book The Impact of Sulphur on the Breadmaking Quality of Canadian Western Red Spring Wheat in Western Canada written by Christopher J. H. Unger and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canada Western Red Spring (CWRS) wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. AC Barrie) was grownl at twelve locations, over two growing seasons across western Canada, to study the impact of S fertilization on grain yield and quality of wheat. Treatments consisted of two rates of fertilizer S (0 and 20 kg ha-l) as ammonium sulphate and two rates of fertilizer N (26 and 100 kg ha-l) as urea in a factorial design. Soil and plant tissue tests were also evaluated for their ability to predict grain S concentration, grain N:S ratio, total S accumulation in the plant, and grain quality responses to S fertilization. Analysis of grain for total S, N, and N:S ratio accurately predicted the concentration of S, N, and N:S ratio in flour. Grain S concentration and N:S ratio were weakly correlated with both absolute and relative grain yield. Grain S concentration was strongly and positively correlated with loaf height, loaf volume, and oven spring; grain N:S ratio was negatively, but more weakly, correlated with these baking parameters. The improvements in baking quality were accompanied by an increase in dough extensibility and reduction in dough strength. Grain S concentration was positively correlated with dough extensibility and negatively correlated with maximum dough resistance, mixograph peak time, and work input to peak. Grain N:S ratio was negatively correlated with dough extensibility and positively correlated with maximum dough resistance and work input to peak. The improvements in baking and dough quality were associated with changes in the protein composition of flour. Grain S concentration was positively correlated with the proportion of soluble glutenin and negatively correlated with the ratio of insoluble to soluble glutenin in flour. Grain N:S ratio was negatively correlated with the proportion of soluble glutenin and positively correlated with the ratio of insoluble to soluble glutenin in flour. Sulphur fertilization increased grain yield at two of seven sites used for breadmaking quality evaluation. Application of S fertilizer also frequently improved the breadmaking quality, dough quality, and flour protein composition of wheat at four of these seven sites. All four sites where grain quality improvements were observed contained 40 kg SO4-S ha-l prior to fertilization, a concentration of soil S regarded as marginally sufficient for grain yield. Also, at these four marginal S sites, the S concentration and N:S ratio of plant tissue samples collected at 50 % heading was 0.15 % S and l7:1, respectively. Sulphur fertilization increased the concentration of S in grain and reduced the N:S ratio in grain at all marginal S sites. The improvements in grain S nutrition were accompanied by significant improvements in loaf volume at two of the four marginal S sites when S fertilizer was applied in combination with 26 or 100 kg N ha-l, and at one more site where 100 kg N ha-l was applied. Sulphur fertilization increased loaf height and oven spring at three of the four sites. Application of S fertilizer also significantly increased dough extensibility at all four marginal S sites and reduced maximum dough resistance and mixograph peak time at three of four sites. Mixograph peak time was significantly reduced at the other marginal S site only in the presence of 100 kg N ha-1. Furthermore, S fertilization reduced the viscoelastic ratio and mixograph work input to peak at all four marginal S sites. Sulphur fertilization increased the proportion of soluble glutenin in flour and reduced the ratio of insoluble to soluble glutenin in the flour at three of four marginal S sites. Sulphur fertilization in the presence of 100 kg N ha-1 only, increased the proportion of soluble glutenin in flour and reduced the ratio of insoluble to soluble glutenin in the flour at the other marginal S site. At the three sites where soil SO4-S concentrations were 40 kg ha-l, no yield and few breadmaking quality improvements were observed in response to S fertilization. For these high S sites, S fertilization did not increase the S concentration in grain at any site and reduced the N:S ratio in grain at only one site. At all four sites where grain contained - 0.17 % S and an N:S ratio 17:1, quality improvements due to S fertilization were consistently observed. At all three sites where grain contained S concentrations >-0.17 % S and N:S ratios

Book Synopsis Agriculture and the Nitrogen Cycle by : Arvin Mosier
Download or read book Agriculture and the Nitrogen Cycle written by Arvin Mosier and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2013-04-10 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and development and a key agricultural input-but in excess it can lead to a host of problems for human and ecological health. Across the globe, distribution of fertilizer nitrogen is very uneven, with some areas subject to nitrogen pollution and others suffering from reduced soil fertility, diminished crop production, and other consequences of inadequate supply. Agriculture and the Nitrogen Cycle provides a global assessment of the role of nitrogen fertilizer in the nitrogen cycle. The focus of the book is regional, emphasizing the need to maintain food and fiber production while minimizing environmental impacts where fertilizer is abundant, and the need to enhance fertilizer utilization in systems where nitrogen is limited. The book is derived from a workshop held by the Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment (SCOPE) in Kampala, Uganda, that brought together the world's leading scientists to examine and discuss the nitrogen cycle and related problems. It contains an overview chapter that summarizes the group's findings, four chapters on cross-cutting issues, and thirteen background chapters. The book offers a unique synthesis and provides an up-to-date, broad perspective on the issues of nitrogen fertilizer in food production and the interaction of nitrogen and the environment.
Download or read book Sulphur in Plants written by Y.P. Abrol and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sulphur (S) plays a pivotal role in various plant growth and development processes being a constituent of sulphur-containing amino acids, cysteine and methionine, and other metabolites viz., glutathione and phytochelatins, co-factor of enzymes which contribute to stress repair and amelioration of heavy metal toxicity. Besides, a number of S-containing components are biologically active and, thus, a source for use as medicinal value. The basic global issue before the agricultural scientist and world community is to evolve cultivars and develop methodologies for efficient use of inputs to enhance agricultural productivity. This is particularly true of the developing countries which are going to see maximum rise in population with changing food demands and declining availability of land. Amongst the inputs, nutrients play a crucial role. The major requirement is for N, P and K followed by several micro-nutrients. In this context reports of world-wide S deficiency in the agricultural systems are relevant. The reasons are many. Broadly speaking reduction inS emission, use of S-free N, P and K fertilizers and higher biomass production contributed the maximum. Despite the need for sulphur as an essential plant nutrient and the substantial returns expected from its use, very little attention has been given to fill the gap between supply and demand of S.

Book Synopsis Advances in Plant Sulfur Research by : Dimitris L. Bouranis
Download or read book Advances in Plant Sulfur Research written by Dimitris L. Bouranis and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an essential nutrient for plant growth and development, sulfur (S) deficiency in productive systems limits yield and quality. This Special Issue hosts a collection of original research articles, focusing on the following topics: (1) The germinative and post-germinative behavior of Brassica napus seeds when severe S limitation is applied to the parent plants; (2) the independence of S-deficiency from the mRNA degradation initiation enzyme PARN in Arabidopsis; (3) the glucosinolate distribution in the aerial parts of sel1-10, a disruption mutant of the sulfate transporter SULTR1;2, in mature Arabidopsis thaliana plants; (4) the accumulation of S-methylcysteine as its γ-glutamyl dipeptide in Phaseolus vulgaris; and (5) the role of ferric iron chelation-strategy components in the leaves and roots of maize, have provided new insights into the effect of S availability on plant functionality. Moreover, the role of S deficiency in root system functionality has been highlighted, focusing on (6) the contribution of root hair development to sulfate uptake in Arabidopsis, and (7) the modulation of lateral root development by the CLE-CLAVATA1 signaling pathway under S deficiency. The role of S in plants grown under drought conditions has been investigated in more detail focusing (8) on the relationship between S-induced stomata closure and the canonical ABA signal transduction machinery. Furthermore, (9) the assessment of S deficiency under field conditions by single measurements of sulfur, chloride, and phosphorus in mature leaves, (10) the effect of fertilizers enriched with elemental S on durum wheat yield, and (11, 12) the impact of elemental S on the rhizospheric bacteria of durum wheat contributed to enhancing the scientific knowledge of S nutrition under field conditions.
Book Synopsis Nitrogen and Sulfur Effects on Hard Winter Wheat Quality and Asparagine Concentration and Survey of Kansas Soil Sulfur Conditions by : Tara Leanne Wilson
Download or read book Nitrogen and Sulfur Effects on Hard Winter Wheat Quality and Asparagine Concentration and Survey of Kansas Soil Sulfur Conditions written by Tara Leanne Wilson and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soil sulfur (S) deficiency is becoming increasingly common throughout the U.S. due to The Clean Air Act of 1990; S deficiency is typically found in high sand and low organic matter soils and looks very similar to nitrogen deficiency with stunted growth and chlorosis. Over application of N when there is a S deficiency has shown to be detrimental to wheat quality. Sulfur deficiency is detrimental to baking quality due to its effects on formation of disulfide bonds. These bonds are formed from the sulfhydryl groups of cysteine, which influence viscoelasticity of dough. Soil S deficiency can also lead to an increase of free asparagine concentration which indicates acrylamide forming potential of baked products. Acrylamide is a potential carcinogen; S fertilization has been shown to decrease acrylamide forming potential in wheat flour. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to: i) determine the effect of genotype, N, and S fertility on overall wheat quality and rheological characteristics; ii) determine the typical range of asparagine in wheat grain in Kansas: and iii) determine the influence of S availability in soils on asparagine in wheat grain. In the first study we found that in a soil with low S availability, S fertility significantly increased overall grain quality and rheological characteristics as well as increasing yield. Protein composition was evaluated by the ratio of total polymeric/ total monomeric protein using high performance liquid chromatography. In both years, the ratio of polymeric to monomeric protein was increased by sulfur fertilization. Solvent retention capacity (SRC) was evaluated using the whole grain lactic acid-sodium dodecyl sulfate solvent retention test (lactic acid- SDS SRC). In 2018, S application increased the SRC from 217% to 308%. Sulfur application increased average farinograph stability from 9.2 min to 14.6 min. Farinograph stability was effectively predicted by the SRC test (R2=0.78). Free asparagine concentration decreased significantly in both years across all genotypes when S was applied. Although, in Chapter 2 we found that poor wheat quality in a S deficient soil was increased with S fertilizer application, we did not find a strong correlation between available S in the soil and wheat quality or free asparagine concentration in Chapter 3. In 2018 a S sufficient location, Ashland had the highest free asparagine concentration (37 [mu]mol/g) which was likely due to hot dry weather during grain fill. Thus, further investigation of factors influencing free asparagine in winter wheat is necessary for us to have a better understanding of how to decrease the risk of elevated levels. Information from this study will help winter wheat producers in the Great Plains diagnose sulfur deficiency and determine best practices for increasing grain quality and decreasing free asparagine concentration.
