DOI: 10.1002/etc.5318
Abstract: Activated carbon–based amendments have been demonstrated as a means of sequestering sediment‐associated organic compounds such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). In a 2012 effort, an activated carbon amendment was placed at a 0.5‐acre amendment area adjacent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jeq2.20319
Abstract: Anaerobic conditions developed during flooding can increase phosphorus (P) losses from soils to waterways. Soil amendment with gypsum (CaSO4 •2H2 O) can effectively reduce flooding-induced P release, but its effectiveness is soil-dependent, and the reasons… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ps.6365
Abstract: BACKGROUND Plant viruses are mainly transmitted by piercing-sucking herbivores, and viral disease management relies on chemical control of vectors. Southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV) is transmitted by the white-backed planthopper (WBPH), Sogatella furcifera. This… read more here.

Amendment with biodiesel co-product modifies genes for N cycling (nirK, nirS, nosZ) and greenhouse gas emissions (N2O, CH4, CO2) from an acid soil

DOI: 10.1007/s00374-021-01546-4
Abstract: When applied to soils, ‘biodiesel co-product’ (BCP) functions as a labile source of organic C for microorganisms and promotes immobilisation of inorganic N (otherwise susceptible to leaching). However, the effects on biological N transformations and… read more here.
