Nickel availability in soil as influenced by liming and its role in soybean nitrogen metabolism

Nickel availability in soil as influenced by liming and its role in soybean nitrogen metabolism

Nickel (Ni) availability in soil varies as a function of pH. Plants require Ni in small quantities for normal development, especially in legumes due its role in nitrogen (N) metabolism. This study investigated the effect of soil base saturation, and Ni amendments on Ni uptake, nitrogen (N) accumulat...
