The different sources of organic fertilizers when available in soils play significant roles in establishing appropriate microbial ecology, make available soil nutrients, moisture levels, and change the biochemical and biophysical properties. In problem soils, in particular acid soils, where acidity, low nutrient availability, and toxicity are conce...

Calciphyte species form a systematically and structurally heterogeneous group of plants capable of tolerating highly stressful conditions. Various structural adaptations occur in calciphytes to protect them against excess light (leaf pubescence) and moisture loss (waxy coating). Their shoot structure determines the volume of primary plant productio...
