   Effects of biostimulants on tissue and rhizospheric acid phosphatase activity of chickpea genotypes

   Item type: Journal Article • Journal: South African Journal of Plant and Soil • Authors: Rebahlotse Mapula Moloto --- , South Africa Felix D Dakora --- , South Africa Puffy Soundy --- , South Africa Sipho Thulane Maseko --- , South Africa

   Although the application of biostimulants to soils and plants affects their phosphatase activity, this has not been shown in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) grown under South African conditions. In this study, chickpea genotypes were grown in silty-loam and silty-clay-loam soils...

   Genotypic variability in nutrient uptake and use efficiency in chickpea grown under low phosphorus availability in a Mediterranean climate

   Item type: Journal Article • Journal: South African Journal of Plant and Soil • Authors: Hanine Loucif --- Université Djilali Bounaama de Khemis Miliana, Algeria Brahim Bousalhih --- Université Djilali Bounaama de Khemis Miliana, Algeria Rebiha Chaoui --- Université Djilali Bounaama de Khemis Miliana, Algeria Jean Jacques Drevon --- Université de Montpellier, France Mohamed Farissi --- Sultan Moulay Slimane University, Morocco Mohamed Lazali --- Université Djilali Bounaama de Khemis Miliana, Algeria

   Low phosphorus (P) availability is a major constraint for chickpea production. Consequently, P-efficient genotypes can improve productivity under conditions where the higher application of P is not economical. This study was conducted to characterise four chickpea genotypes for nutrient uptake...
