Journal ArticleDOI
Soil organic matter properties after 40 years of different use of organic and mineral fertilisers
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of 40 years of organic, mineral and mixed fertilisations on soil organic properties were evaluated in a continuous maize system, and the following properties were analyzed: total organic carbon (TOC), humic carbon (HC) and its molecular weight distribution, HC/TOC and the hormone-(auxin and gibberellin-like) activities of the humic substances and their effects on two key enzymes involved in nitrate assimilation in maize seedlings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphorus forms and P-sorption properties in three alkaline soils after long-term mineral and manure applications in north-eastern Italy
TL;DR: In this paper, the long-term evolution of soil P forms has been studied in a factorial experiment combining three soils (sandy, clay and a peaty) with three types of fertilization (no fertilizer, farmyard manure and mineral fertilizer).
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing reference evapotranspiration by the Hargreaves method in north-eastern Italy
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the possibility for calibrating the HARG equation in Veneto region (north-eastern Italy) according to different criteria, including the average, minimum and maximum air temperature and extraterrestrial radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil macro- and microstructure as affected by different tillage systems and their effects on maize root growth
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared conventional (CT) and no tillage (NT) practices to evaluate their effects on soil structure and maize root morphology and dynamics during a two-year transition period.

TL;DR: In this paper, structural and morphological transformations of biomasses during heating were followed by using FT-IR, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and hyperspectral enhanced dark-field microscopy, a novel technique that provides both spectral and spatial information in one measurement.
