Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of nitrogen sources on the chemical components in young plants
TL;DR: In this article, comparative studies on the absorption and assimilation of ammonium- and nitrate-nitrogen in higher plants at young stages of growth were carried out to make clear the mechanism of ammonia toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
FACTORS AFFECTING IMMOBILIZATION AND RELEASE OF NITROGEN IN SOIL AND CHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE NITROGEN NEWLY IMMOBILIZED : I. Effect of Temperature on Immobilization and Release of Nitrogen in Soil
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a continuous and concurrent decomposition and release of nitrogen in soil, whereby the nitrogen of the decomposing system is transformed steadily from inorganic to organic state by immobilization and back from organic to inorganic state by decay and mineralization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors affecting immobilization and release of nitrogen in soil and chemical characteristics of the nitrogen newly immobilized III. Transformation of the nitrogen immobilized in soil and its chemical characteristics
TL;DR: In this article, the chemical characteristics of newly immobilized-, subsequently released-, and residual-N were studied in soils receiving KNO3 labelled with 15N together with glucose, straw, and cellulose.
Journal ArticleDOI
Drying effect on mineralizations of microbial cells and their cell walls in soil and contribution of microbial cell walls as a source of decomposable soil organic matter due to drying
TL;DR: In this article, the mineralization of several kinds of microbial cells added to soil were accelerated considerably by the drying effect, and they were roughly divided by mechanical procedure into two parts, i.e., cytoplasmic and cell wall substances, and separately added to the soil with or without drying previously.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on the environmental conditions controlling nitrification in soil
Togoro Harada,Hideaki Kai +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it is well known that the loss of nitrogen from the cultivated field principally occurs in the following two ways: denitrification of nitrate, and leaching down ofnitrate by percolating water.
