Effect of soil acidity for some soybean varieties
Journal Title: Journal of Biodiversity and Environmental Sciences (JBES) - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
This study aims to determine the mechanism of adaptation and morphophysiology character of soybean genotypes to soil acidity levels. Research using randomized block design with four replications, the first factor consists of soybean varieties: Tanggamus varieties, Detam 2, Anjasmoro and Detam 1, while the second factor is the media's treatment consisted of medium acid soils and limed soil. The results showed that the low level acidity of planting medium will affect the growth and development of plants. There are different mechanisms of adaptation to acidity on soybean varieties. Avoidance mechanism is indicated by an increase in pH around the roots on Tanggamus varieties, Detam2, Anjasmoro and Detam1. Tolerant mechanism is indicated by the maturation age and high production on Tanggamus varieties.

Transformation of lowland rainforest into oil palm plantations results in changes of leaf litter production and decomposition in Sumatra, Indonesia
Leaf litter plays an important role for nutrient availability in ecosystems. Conversion of tropical rainforest into different land-use systems could largely alter nutrient cycling via changes in litter production and d...
Quantitative gene expression analysis of NHX1 and HvPIP2;1 in barley (HordeumvulgareL.) under salinity stress
Plant sodium transporters activity and plasma membrane intrinsic proteins are the most important salt tolerance mechanisms in plants. In the present study, the expression pattern of genes encoding Na+/H+ exchanger (NHX1...
