With hydroponic culture, this paper studied the effects of different nitrogen (N) supply levels (0, 0.15, 0.3, 0.45, 0.6, 0.75 g N x L(-1)) on the seedling morphology and N allocation of Parthenocissus tricuspidata. The results showed that lower N supply retarded the development of P. tricuspidata seedling's branch; while higher N supply had significant effects in promoting the seedling's early branching and lowering the branching position on the main stem. Supplying higher amount of N increased the plant biomass and the N concentration in root, leaf and stem significantly. Compared with stem and root, leaf had the highest biomass, accounting for 50% of the total biomass, and the highest N accumulation, accounting for 60%-70% of the total accumulated N.

Nitrogen (N) retention is a critical ecosystem function associated with sustainable N supply. Lack of experimental evidence limits our understanding of how grassland N retention can vary with soil acidification. A N-labeling experiment was conducted for 2 years to quantify N retention by soil pathways and plant functional groups across a soil-acidification gradient in a meadow.

Odor emissions, primarily from anthropogenic activities like waste treatment and industrial processes, pose significant challenges in urban areas, particularly near water resource recovery facilities. While these emissions are generally not toxic, they can adversely affect community wellbeing and investment, prompting stricter regulations in some regions. For example, New York State's hydrogen sulfide guidelines are more stringent than federal standards.

Thiocyanate (SCN) is a highly toxic reducing inorganic compound commonly found in various nitrogen-rich wastewater and is also a promising electron donor for mixotrophic denitrification. However, its extent of involvement in mixotrophic denitrification under conditions of carbon limitation or excess remains unclear. In this study, five reactors were constructed to investigate the participation and microbial mechanisms of SCN in mixotrophic denitrification under high C/N and low C/N conditions.

The accumulation of aniline in the natural environment poses a potential threat to crops, and thus, investigating the effects of aniline on plants holds practical implications for agricultural engineering and its affiliated industries. This study combined physiological, transcriptomic, and metabolomic methods to investigate the growth status and molecular-level response mechanisms of rice under stress from varying concentrations of aniline. At a concentration of 1 mg/L, aniline exhibited a slight growth-promoting effect on rice.

Yeast formulations such as dry yeast are essential for supplying microbial starters to the alcoholic beverage industry. In Korea, the expensive freeze-drying method is used to manufacture brewer's dry yeast, and therefore an economical process such as fluidized bed drying is needed. In the dry yeast manufacturing process, the medium and drying conditions are key factors that determine its quality and manufacturing cost.
