Use Of Reactive Phosphate Rock For Pastures On The Southern Tablelands Of Nsw, Australia, D L. Garden, P R. Dann, I J. Mcgowen, C O'Malley
Use Of Reactive Phosphate Rock For Pastures On The Southern Tablelands Of Nsw, Australia, D L. Garden, P R. Dann, I J. Mcgowen, C O'Malley
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
A comparison was made of pasture production from phosphate fertilisers, including superphosphate, reactive phosphate rocks (RPRs) and a non-reactive phosphate rock at two sites on the Southern tablelands of NSW, Australia. Production from all phosphate rocks was low in the first year at both sites, but RPRs were similar to superphosphate by the fourth year. Production from RPRs was low in a dry year which is consistent with the requirement for moist acid soils for effective release of P from RPRs. Performance of RPRs was better at the site which was moister and had higher summer rainfall.
Increased Phosphorus Supply Enhances Water Uptake And Water Use Efficiency In White Clover Under Dry Conditions, D K. Singh, P.W. G. Sale
Increased Phosphorus Supply Enhances Water Uptake And Water Use Efficiency In White Clover Under Dry Conditions, D K. Singh, P.W. G. Sale
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
A glasshouse experiment was carried out to determine how increasing rates of P supply (0, 33, 100 and 300 kg P ha-1) influenced the water use efficiency of white clover grown in a P-deficient soil under dry conditions. Increasing the P supply enhanced both shoot dry matter yield and water use by the clover plants. The relatively greater dry matter response meant that water use efficiency also increased with added P. High rates of water extraction by these high-P clover plants resulted in a marked drying of soil. Despite these dry soil conditions there was no adverse effect on growth …

Changes In Soil Microbial Biomass-N Under Ryegrass/White Clover Grazed Pastures Based On Symbiotic N Fixation And Fertilizer N, R Ruz, H Troncoso, L Longeri, E Jahn, I Vidal
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
Soil microbial biomass nitrogen (BN ) was periodically measured in two pastures a) grazed pastures without N fertilizer and b) grazed pastures receiving 200 kg of fertilizer N per year, respectively, during July 1993 to July 1994. Soil type was a volcanic soil Medial, thermic, Typic Distrandept. BN was highly variable and the two type of pastures showed a similar pattern of distribution, with statistical differences in only three sampling. Values of BN were lower than that found in other studies of temperate regions, but also the BN was significantly higher than the available pool of mineral N, indicating the …

Benefits Of Applying Cow Slurry In Bands Beneath Grass Canopies, S Bittman, C G. Kowalenko, O Schmidt, D E. Hunt
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
Efficient methods of application may enable dairy producers to use slurry manure as aoereplacement for inorganic nitrogen on grassland. This study compares the effect of slurry applied in bands beneath the grass canopy (drag-shoe) with a broadcast of slurry on top of the canopy (splash-plate), and with fertilizer nitrogen on yield of grass. Trials were conducted in spring, summer and fall of 1995 on established tall fescue in south-coastal B.C. Slurry manure was applied by drag-shoe or splash-plate at 50 and 100 kg ha-1 (nominally), at start of grass regrowth or 7-8 days later. A range of rates of NH4NO3 …

The Effect Of Fertiliser History On Nutrient Accumulation And Plant-Available Nutrient Supply In Legume-Based Pasture Soils, J L. Moir, M J. Hedley, A D. Mackay, R W. Tillman
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
Animal production in New Zealand is dependent on pastoral legumes to build soil nitrogen fertility, which otherwise limits the growth of the major sward component, grass. Traditionally, in order to sustain legume vigour, single superphosphate has been applied to elevate soil phosphorus and sulphur levels. Rarely have either the agronomic or nutrient efficiencies of these systems been assessed. Fourteen hill country pasture sites in three broad rainfall regimes were chosen to assess the effect of contrasting fertiliser histories on soil fertility, in particular nitrogen availability. At each site soil fertility indices and pasture production for the 1993/94 growing season were …
Responses Of Red Clover To Inoculation With Endophytic Bacteria From Root Nodules, A V. Sturz, B R. Christie, B G. Matheson, J Nowak
Responses Of Red Clover To Inoculation With Endophytic Bacteria From Root Nodules, A V. Sturz, B R. Christie, B G. Matheson, J Nowak
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
The aim of this study was to identify endophytic bacteria isolated from the nodules of healthy red clover plants (Trifolium pratense L.) and to assess their effects, alone and in combination with Rhizobium, on the growth and development of red clover seedlings. Clover root nodules were host to 12 bacteria species other than rhizobia. In root bacterization experiments, root nodule bacteria often promoted in vitro growth and nodulation of red clover when applied in combination with R. leguminosarum BV trifolii. Instances of growth depression were fewer in mixed than in individual bacterial applications. Single isolate applications of Rhizobium species to …
A Nordhaus-Gaddum Type Problem For The Normalized Laplacian Spectrum And Graph Cheeger Constant, Adam Widtsoe Knudson
A Nordhaus-Gaddum Type Problem For The Normalized Laplacian Spectrum And Graph Cheeger Constant, Adam Widtsoe Knudson
Theses and Dissertations
We will study various quantities related to connectivity of a graph. To this end, we look at Nordhaus-Gaddum type problems, which are problems where the same quantity is studied for a graph $G$ and its complement $G^c$ at the same time. For a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with normalized Laplacian eigenvalues $0 = \lambda_1(G) \leq \lambda_2(G) \leq \cdots \leq \lambda_n(G)$ and graph complement $G^c$, we prove that \begin{equation*} \max\{\lambda_2(G),\lambda_2(G^c)\}\geq \frac{2}{n^2}. \end{equation*} We do this by way of lower bounding $\max\{i(G), i(G^c)\}$ and $\max\{h(G), h(G^c)\}$ where $i(G)$ and $h(G)$ denote the isoperimetric number and Cheeger constant of $G$, respectively. We …
Application And Development Of Ceragenins In Medical Device Coatings For Clinical Settings, Elliot E. Sherren
Application And Development Of Ceragenins In Medical Device Coatings For Clinical Settings, Elliot E. Sherren
Theses and Dissertations
Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) pose a significant and increasing threat to global health. One primary cause of this threat is increasing antibiotic resistance. As traditional antibiotics continue to grow less effective, there is an urgent need for novel antimicrobial strategies. This work explores the potential of ceragenins, also known as cationic steroid antimicrobials (CSAs), as a promising alternative to combat HAIs. Specifically, we investigated potential roles that CSAs can play in the context of multiple medical device coatings in healthcare settings. Ceragenins are synthetic mimic of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) which exhibit broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against many common pathogens that have been …
A Simple Mobile Plausibly Deniable System Using Image Steganography And Secure Hardware, Lichen Xia, Jinghui Liao, Niusen Chen, Bo Chen, Weisong Shi
A Simple Mobile Plausibly Deniable System Using Image Steganography And Secure Hardware, Lichen Xia, Jinghui Liao, Niusen Chen, Bo Chen, Weisong Shi
Michigan Tech Publications, Part 2
Traditional encryption methods cannot defend against coercive attacks in which the adversary captures both the user and the possessed computing device, and forces the user to disclose the decryption keys. Plausibly deniable encryption (PDE) has been designed to defend against this strong coercive attacker. At its core, PDE allows the victim to plausibly deny the very existence of hidden sensitive data and the corresponding decryption keys upon being coerced. Designing an efficient PDE system for a mobile platform, however, is challenging due to various design constraints bound to the mobile systems. Leveraging image steganography and the built-in hardware security feature …
Symbiotic Behaviour Of Alfalfa Varieties Grown In Different Soils, C Scotti, S Gnocchi, M Carelli, P Rotili
Symbiotic Behaviour Of Alfalfa Varieties Grown In Different Soils, C Scotti, S Gnocchi, M Carelli, P Rotili
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
Six alfalfa (Medicago sativa) varieties were grown in two contrasting soils to study their symbiotic ability as estimated by nodule biomass and dry matter yield in presence of the natural population of rhizobia of soil. Varieties can be discriminated on the basis of total (year) nodule biomass; their ranking for nodule biomass was consistent in the different soil types although soils significantly influenced nodulation and dry matter yield.
Long Term Effects Of Liming A Basalt-Derived Soil, On Lucerene And Phalaris Production, K.M. F. Reed, J F. Chin
Long Term Effects Of Liming A Basalt-Derived Soil, On Lucerene And Phalaris Production, K.M. F. Reed, J F. Chin
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
Lime incorporated into a basalt-derived clay loam lowered exchangeable aluminium in soil. Soil pH was still elevated, 9 years after 2 t/ha of lime was incorporated. With lower rates of lime the density of lucerne plants declined. Lucerne yield more than doubled with lime. After six years, the area was sown to a phalaris-clover pasture. A 15% increase in the yield of phalaris was recorded from limed plots over the next three years. Despite this, 11 years after liming, herbage P concentrations increased with lime, from 0.28% to 0.35%.
Can Maize Influence The Dissolution Of Low Water Soluble Phosphorus Fertilizers?, S Sinaj, E Frossard
Can Maize Influence The Dissolution Of Low Water Soluble Phosphorus Fertilizers?, S Sinaj, E Frossard
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the respective importance of maize (Zea mays) and soil properties on the dissolution of two sparingly soluble P fertilizers. The surface horizon of an acidic and a calcareous soils were amended with Thomas’ slag or phosphate rock and were either incubated or cultivated with maize. Maize cultivation increased the rate of dissolution of both fertilizers in both soils. Its influence remained limited compared to fertilizer dissolution in the incubated acidic soil. In the calcareous soil, however, the presence of maize increased significantly the rate of fertilizer dissolution compared to that observed in …
Phosphorus Availability, Defoliation Tolerance, And Genetic Differentiation In White Clover, D F. Chapman
Phosphorus Availability, Defoliation Tolerance, And Genetic Differentiation In White Clover, D F. Chapman
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
The genetic composition of mixed populations of white clover growing in low fertility, grass-dominant hill pastures was estimated four and eight years after populations were established. Populations were based on an adapted ('Grasslands Tahora') or poorly adapted ('Grasslands Huia') cultivar, and received either no fertiliser, or 35kg P /ha /year. The P response curve of surviving plants was also determined, and compared with plants grown from 'standard' seedlines of the respective cultivars. Between years 4 and 8, the proportion of the populations constituted by plants true-to-type for the sown cultivar remained steady at 56 - 58% for Tahora, but fell …
Seasonal Variations Of Labile Soil Organic Carbon And Nitrogen Fertility In Grassland Soil In Tokyo, Japan, T Murata, H Tanaka, Y Kurokawa
Seasonal Variations Of Labile Soil Organic Carbon And Nitrogen Fertility In Grassland Soil In Tokyo, Japan, T Murata, H Tanaka, Y Kurokawa
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
We investigated seasonal variations of soil enzyme activities, soil inorganic N, soil microbial biomass N (BN) and soil total sugar C (TSC) during March to December in cattle-grazed pasture in Japan (Andisols). Dehydrogenase activity had three peaks in a year, on the other hand, phosphomonoesterase activity increased from spring (April) up to summer (August) but then gradually decreased toward winter. BN also showed a seasonal variation, which gradually increased from April to August, but in the end of August once decreased rapidly because of soil becoming dry. Soil inorganic N had three peaks which appeared after the appearance of dehydrogenase …

IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
Livestock farmers face constraints in efficient manure management because of limited land availability, especially during the growing season, but reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea L.) may provide a solution. We measured yield and apparent N removal of established reed canarygrass with surface-applied dairy manure slurry at three locations in the Upper Midwest, USA. Slurry was broadcast or banded at rates up to 375 m3 ha-1 (1190 kg N ha-1) in single or split applications and N fertilizer was applied at rates up to 448 kg N ha- 1 for comparison. Herbage was harvested three times per year. Nitrogen removal in …

The Influence Of Plant Density And Level Of Nitrogen Fertilization On The Production Of Eragrostis Curvula, P A. Pieterse, N F.G. Rethman, J Van Bosch
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
The objective of this study was to determine whether plant density would have an influence on dry matter (CM) yield and to determine it’s interaction (if any) with levels of N fertilization. Plants on a broadcast establishment of lovegrass (Eragrostis curvula) were mechanically thinned, to leave 30 cm rows with spacing of 0.5 and 1 m. N fertilizer was applied in spring at levels equivalent to 0, 50, 100 and 150 kg N ha-1. The trial was conducted over three growing seasons. In the second and third years the DM yields with 100 and 150 kg N ha-1 on the …

Potassium Rates For Macrotyloma Axillare Growth, R A. Martim, F A. Monteiro, P.R. L. Portilho
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
The response of the tropical forage legume macrotiloma guata (Macrotyloma axillare (E. Mey) Verdc) to potassium rates was studied in a greenhouse experiment. The plants were grown in nutrient solution with seven potassium (K) rates, 0; 3.5; 7; 21; 35; 105 and 245 mg l-1 of solution, in randomized complete block design, with four replications. There was significant response of the legume to potassium rates. Considerations are made on the influence of these levels on plant dry matter yield in two harvests, root dry matter production and potassium and magnesium concentrations in the plant tissue.

IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
The objective of the experiment was to identify traits associated with the production of plant biomass, and hence with P utilization efficiency, when legume species were fertilized. Red clover (Trifolium pratense) and narrowleaf birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus tenuis) were compared in a greenhouse experiment using phosphorus deficient soils. Three plants grew in pots fertilized with 0, 2, 4, 8, 15, 20, 30 and 40 ppm in soil, in a randomized experimental design. Harvest was made at 60 days from the sowing date. Leaf areas, shoot and root biomass, and tissue phosphorus contents were measured. Results showed that …
Phosphogypsum As A Source Of Nutrients For Bahiagrass, J E. Rechcigl, I S. Alcordo
Phosphogypsum As A Source Of Nutrients For Bahiagrass, J E. Rechcigl, I S. Alcordo
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
Phosphogypsum is a by-product of the manufacture of phosphoric acid from phosphate rock and is a potential source of sulfur and calcium for crops. There are currently more than 700 million Mg of phosphogypsum in Florida alone stacked in waste piles and an additional 30 million Mg produced annually. A 3-year study was conducted to determine whether addition of phosphogypsum to bahiagrass would increase production and quality. Results indicate that addition of up to 4.0 Mg/ha phosphogypsum increased bahiagrass yields, protein content, and in vitro digestibility of forage. This study has demonstrated that phosphogypsum can be used as an alternative …

The effect of agropastoral systems replacing native savanna on microbially bound phosphorus (Pmic) in low P acid soils was investigated. Chloroform released P (PChl) was measured to estimate Pmic. In a long-term improved pasture experiment, PChl was higher in grass-legume (GL) than grass-only pasture (GO). Although the P balance was slightly higher in GO than in GL, available P contents followed the same trend as PChl suggesting that the presence of legumes enhances the maintenance of P fertility. In a rice-pasture system, PChl was higher than under rice monocrop indicating an effect of the cropping system on PChl that goes …

The objective of this study was to clarify that the root exudates of Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) expand the basal spacing of hydroxy potassium vermiculite (K-Vt) in the rhizosphere model with a clay-agar system, and to discuss that the action of the root exudates is regarded as a biosignal to release potassium ions from the interlayers of vermiculite clays.

The study was to elucidate the effect of application of slurry manure from dairy cows on chemical components, the rumen degradation characteristics and silage intake by sheep of Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) and Triticale ( rye-wheat hybrid). The amounts of application of slurry were 0, 50, 100 and 150 t/ha. The increasing level of slurry application resulted in a decrease of lower digestible cell wall and an increase of degradation rate. The silage of 150 t /ha treatment was significantly more consumed by sheep than the other treatments (p<0.05). The changes in cell wall components in both quantity and quality by the slurry application were advantageous to the increase of voluntary dry matter intake of the forage.

The three pot experiments were carried out at the Qingyang Research Station, Gansu, China to determine the yield response of P and Zn, and examine the effect of soil types on P and Zn requirement of the local and introduced lucerne cultivars in the establishment phase on calcareous soils. The results showed marked growth and dry matter yield benefit at lucerne establishment when P fertiliser was applied on both soils. There were no consistent difference among the three cultivars in response to added P. A significant shoot yield response to Zn was only recorded at high P supply in the …
