Nutrient uptake and assimilation in fragrant rosewood (Dalbergia odorifera T.C. Chen) seedlings in growing media with un-composted spent mushroom residue.

The purpose of this study was to detect nutrient uptake and assimilation in woody plants subjected to growing media with some peat replaced by spent mushroom residue (SMR).Fragrant rosewood (Dalbergia odorifera T.C.Chen) seedlings were cultured in five types of growing media Playstation Controller with SMR and peat in volumetric proportions of 0% (

Genome-wide identification, expression analysis of WRKY transcription factors in Citrus ichangensis and functional validation of CiWRKY31 in response to cold stress

Abstract Background Ichang papeda (Citrus ichangensis), a wild perennial plant of the Rutaceae family, is a cold-hardy plant.WRKY transcription factors are crucial regulators of plant growth and development as well as abiotic stress responses.However, the WRKY genes in C.ichangensis (CiWRKY) and their expression patterns under cold stress have not

Exergy, energy, and emissions analyses of binary and ternary blends of seed waste biodiesel of tomato, papaya, and apricot in a diesel engine

Biodiesel is considered as a renewable biofuel-based substitute for fossil diesel as the properties of biodiesel are similar to those of normal diesel fuel.However, biodiesel has some properties which a negative effect on engine combustion.Binary and ternary fuel blends (blends of biodiesels with the opposite properties) are the best environmentall
