Slow nutrient turnover and destructed soil function were the main factors causing low efficiency in phytoremediation of heavy metal (HM)-contaminated soil. Soil ecoenzymatic …
Perennial grass energy crop production is necessary for the successful and sustainable expansion of bioenergy in North America. Numerous environmental advantages are …
Increasing food demand coupled with climate change pose a great challenge to agricultural systems. In this review we summarize recent advances in our knowledge of how plants …

Nitrogen (N) fertilizer application and atmospheric wet deposition have led to excessive N input into the soil and nitrate leaching into groundwater, which has become a widespread …
Cellulosic bioenergy crops, like switchgrass (Panicum virgatum), have potential for growth on lands unsuitable for food production coupled with potential for climate mitigation …
Sustainable switchgrass production (Panicum virgatum) as a bioenergy crop hinges partly on efficiently using soil macronutrients, especially nitrogen (N). In this study, switchgrass …
The development of environmentally sustainable, economical, and reliable sources of energy is one of the great challenges of the 21st century. Large-scale cultivation of cellulosic …
