Soil Amendments
A soil amendment is any material that is added to soil to reduce erosion, and enhance fertility, productivity, and other soil services. A soil... -
NIN-like proteins (NLPs) as crucial nitrate sensors: an overview of their roles in nitrogen signaling, symbiosis, abiotic stress, and beyond
Nitrogen is an essential macronutrient critical for plant growth and productivity. Plants have the capacity to uptake inorganic nitrate and ammonium,...
