- Abstract
The high level of meat and saturated fat consumption in the USA and other high-income countries exceeds nutritional needs and contributes to high rates of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and some cancers. Affluent citizens in middle- and low-income countries are adopting similar high-meat diets and experiencing increased rates of these same chronic diseases. The industrial agricultural system, now the predominant form of agriculture in the USA and increasingly world-wide, has consequences for public health owing to its extensive use of fertilisers and pesticides, unsustainable use of resources and environmental pollution. In industrial animal production there are public health concerns surrounding feed formulations that include animal tissues, arsenic and antibiotics as well as occupational health risks and risks for nearby communities. It is of paramount importance for public health professionals to become aware of and involved in how our food is produced. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Approximately 30% of the cultivated cropland in the state of Wisconsin is devoted to alfalfa ( Medicago sativa) production. Much of the alfalfa forage produced is used to feed the approximately 1,350,000 dairy cattle found in the state. A key concern of dairy producers is the cation to anion balance in rations for dry and early lactation cows, which is greatly influenced by soil K levels. This study was designed to examine the interactive effects that varying soil pH levels and annual potassium applications would have on forage mineral balance, yield, and quality. Three locations with varying soil textures were used for this 4-yr study. Results indicate that soil pH and applied K can both significantly influence forage yield, quality, and cation levels. At soil pH levels that are near optimum for alfalfa production and yield levels in the 8–10 Mg ha -1 range, it appears that approximately 224 kg K 2 O ha -1 is required annually to optimize yield and stand quality and to maintain soil test in the optimum category. At all locations, as soil K increased, tissue K increased, and to a much smaller extent, tissue Ca and Mg decreased. Annual K application resulted in a buildup of soil test K and a decrease in soil test Ca and Mg. Increasing soil pH, and consequently soil test Ca, did not consistently result in reduced tissue K levels. However, liming these acid soils was essential to optimize alfalfa yield. Keeping soil test K levels in the optimum range appears to be the best strategy for keeping forage tissue K levels in acceptable ranges for use as dry cow and early lactation dairy feed.

Phosphorus (P) fertilizer use efficiency in potato production is relatively low in semiarid regions, wasting P resources and increasing environmental risks. Therefore, improving P use efficiency (PUE) is critical for sustainable potato production. The critical P dilution curve (CPDC) and P nutrition index (PNI) have proven to be robust diagnostic tools for assessing crop P status and aiding in improving P fertilizer management. Several potato CPDCs have been established, however, few studies have been conducted to establish a CPDC for potato (Solanum tuberosumL.) under ridge planting with drip irrigation, a planting pattern that has been increasingly adopted in semi-arid regions. In addition, the different CPDCs established using the conventional Jestus statistical model cannot discriminate the true variability across scenarios or have become linked to estimation errors. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to (1) establish a potato CPDC based on a Bayesian statisticalmethod and (2) evaluate the relationship between potato yield and PNI. Three years of field experiments with five levels of P
2 O5 application (0, 80, 160, 240, 320 kg ha-1 ) were conducted in Inner Mongolia, China. No significant differences were found between CPDCs across the year × site for the assessed scenarios, and thus, a generic CPDC for potatoes in the region was derived as Pc = 0.616 DM-0.296, and it can be used to calculate the PNI. Further analysis showed that at eachgrowth stage, thePNI exhibits a significant plateauing linear relationship with relative potato tuber yield. Thus, it provides a standard for diagnosing the P nutritional status in potatoes and lays a robust foundation for precise P recommendations in the region. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Since the adoption of national rules for organic agriculture in the United States, there has been a continued interest in meeting crop nitrogen (N) needs using animal manure. However, a lack of consistent information on the N supplying potential of manure creates uncertainty for farmers and often leads to overapplication, which can negatively impact both crop productivity and environmental sustainability. We investigated short‐term N mineralization and microbial biomass carbon (MBC) and nitrogen (MBN) following dairy manure (DM) and its compost (DMC) application to organic annual forage production system. N mineralization was determined based on the change in mineral N during a ≤75‐day in‐field soil core‐resin bag incubation. DM and DMC application rates were targeted to supply 123 and 56 kg potentially plant‐available nitrogen (PAN) ha−1 in the first and second year of application, respectively. Net N mineralization exhibited a range of 42–277 kg N ha−1 in Year 1 and 31–54 kg N ha−1 in Year 2 across amendment treatments and increased over the course of incubation duration in both years. The proportion of total N added that was mineralized in Year 1 was greater from DM than DMC (≤35% vs. ≤7%, respectively), suggesting the inability of DMC to supply optimal levels of N to annual forages in the first crop season. In Year 2, net N mineralization did not differ between DM and DMC, but was significantly less in the unamended control than both amendments. MBC and MBN were more influenced by seasonality and soil sampling depth than by organic amendments. Core Ideas: Dairy manure (DM) and its compost (DMC) impacts on N mineralization were assessed in a ≤75‐day in situ incubation study.Responses of soil microbial biomass C and N to DM and DMC were assessed 2 years after the initiation of the study.The proportion of potentially plant‐available nitrogen that was mineralized in Year 1 was greater from DM than DMC; however, it did not differ between the organic amendments in Year 2.Soil microbial biomass C and N were more influenced by seasonality and soil sampling depth than by organic amendments.

SANDY soils ,SOIL productivity ,CROP yields ,MINERALIZATION ,SOIL acidity - Abstract
While many studies note the positive effects of soil organic matter (SOM) on crop yields, there is limited quantitative information on the influence of increased SOM on potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) productivity in sandy soil. This study estimated the impact of varying SOM on potato productivity in sandy soils and explored whether nitrogen (N) mineralization served as a primary mediator. Soil from nine fields in Wisconsin (SOM range of 1.1%–3.8%) was collected for a greenhouse study. Both NH
4 -N and NO3 -N extracted from ion strips and potentially mineralizable nitrogen (PMN) were used as the proxies for N mineralization. Linear mixed effect models indicated that fresh matter whole biomass and dry matter vine biomass were 0.45 and 0.54 times greater at 3.8% SOM compared to 1.1% SOM at an optimal soil pH of 5.2, respectively. Similarly, total N uptake in the whole and vine biomass was 0.51 and 1.0 times higher at 3.8% SOM than 1.1% SOM, respectively. While PMN demonstrated a positive correlation with SOM, it only partially mediated the effect of SOM on productivity, specifically in N uptake in the vines. However, for most productivity measures, including PMN with SOM in the models did not substantially reduce the estimated SOM effect on productivity, indicating that SOM affected productivity mostly through mechanisms other than N acquisition by plants available through mineralization of OM. The study underscored the complex interplay between SOM and potato productivity, urging further research into the multifaceted roles of SOM in sandy soils. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

- Abstract
Down syndrome (DS) is caused by trisomy of chromosome 21 and is associated with characteristic features of appearance, intellectual impairment to varying degrees, organ defects, and health problems typical of this syndrome. Studies on the frequency of consumption of food products in this group show many irregularities, in particular too low consumption of vegetables and fruits, wholegrain cereal products and dairy products, and excessive consumption of meat products and sweets. It is necessary to correct eating habits. The diets of people with trisomy 21 should be consistent with the recommendations of rational nutrition for the general population and take into account specific dietary modifications related to the occurrence of diseases and health problems characteristic of this syndrome.

Background: Clusterbean [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub.] (2n=2x=14) is an under exploited legume belonging to family fabaceae. Clusterbean is a versatile legume crop cultivated mostly as animal feed, green manure green leaves as fodder, vegetable and cover crop. Clusterbean is a drought resistant, hardy, deep rooted annual legume crop. D2 statistics provides a measure of magnitude for divergence between two genotypes under comparison. For broadening the genetic base of cultivars, the genetic diversity present in cultivated and wild relatives must be explored. Generally, diverse germplasms are expected to give high hybrid vigor and hence, it necessitates studying genetic divergence among the existing varieties and genotypes for the identification of parents for hybridization programme. Methods: The present investigation was undertaken to study genetic variability in clusterbean [Cymopsis tetragonaloba (L.) Taub] with using a set of 40 genotypes at Agronomy Instructional Farm, Department of Agronomy, Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University, Sardarkrushinagar during Kharif 2019 in randomized block design with four replications. Mahalanobis (1928) D2 statistic was used for assessing the genetic divergence between different populations. Grouping of the genotypes in different clusters was done by using Tocher's method. The inter-cluster distance was calculated by measuring the distance between clusters I and cluster II, between clusters I and cluster III, between clusters II and cluster III and so on. Likewise, one by one cluster was taken and their distances from other clusters were calculated. Result: The genetic diversity analysis revealed the formation of nine clusters suggested the presence of considerable genetic diversity among the 40 genotypes. The clustering pattern indicated that geographic diversity was not associated with genetic diversity. The analysis of per cent contribution of various characters towards the expression of total genetic divergence indicated that, the number of branches per plant followed by gum content, days to maturity, days to flowering contributed maximum towards total genetic divergence. On the basis of inter cluster distances, cluster IX was found to be more divergent. Therefore, it was concluded that the genotypes belonging to these cluster should be inter crossed in order to generate more variability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Small-grain winter cereals can be utilized as early spring pastures in temperate climates to relieve grazing pressure and potentially mitigate feed shortages. This study was conducted to determine the effects of triticale and oat cereal pastures grazed by sheep during early spring on forage yields, nutritive values, and nutritional requirements of sheep. Methods: The research was carried out over three consecutive years, from 2015 to 2017, at the Sheep Research Institute in Bandırma-Balıkesir, located in the Marmara region of Türkiye. The treatments were arranged in a completely randomized block design, with the two forage species, triticale and oat, randomized within each of three blocks. The animal material for the study consisted of 24 Karacabey Merino sheep, each 2 years old, with an average live weight of 57.6 ± 0.5 kg, all in the late lactation stage. In each replication, four sheep were included, resulting in a total of 12 sheep grazing in each of the triticale and oat pastures. The sheep grazed exclusively on the cereal pastures without any additional feed, and had unrestricted access to water throughout the entire period of the experiment. The dry matter yields (DMY), dry matter intakes (DMI), nutritive values, and mineral contents of the cereal species were determined. Results: The DMY showed significant differences over the years (P < 0.05). No differences in DMY were observed between pastures, with oats yielding 11.99 t ha
−1 and triticale yielding 11.08 t ha−1 . During the grazing period, the change in DMY was significant in all years (P < 0.05). The average DMI of the sheep was 2,003.5 g d−1 for triticale and 2,156.6 g d−1 for oat, respectively, and DMI exhibited no significant differences across pastures. Although there was no difference in DMI between 2015 and 2016, the lowest consumption occurred in 2017 (P < 0.05). Additionally, while DMI showed different trends each year based on the periods, it generally decreased by the end of the grazing period. While both pastures provided similar nutritive values, significant differences were observed in the crude protein (CP), acid detergent fiber (ADF), in vitro true DM digestibility (DDM), and metabolisable energy (ME) values across the years. Over the years, as the grazing period progressed, CP levels decreased while neutral detergent fiber (NDF), ADF, and acid detergent lignin (ADL) increased, resulting in reduced DDM and ME values. The phosphorus (P) content in triticale was higher than in oats, but there were no differences in the content of other minerals between them. Between the years, significant differences were observed in the levels of phosphorus (P) and iron (Fe), while changes in other elements were insignificant. The variation in mineral content during the grazing process differed over the three years. Study results indicated that the nutritional values of triticale and oat pastures are similar, and both can effectively be used to provide sufficient feed to meet the early spring forage requirements for sheep.

Azolla microphylla, a rapidly growing aquatic fern with the unique ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen, presents significant potential for sustainable agriculture. Despite its nitrogenfixing prowess, challenges persist in optimizing biomass production, prompting a detailed exploration of influential factors in this study. This paper addresses the persistent challenge of optimizing nitrogen-rich biomass production in Azolla cultivation. Employing a split-plot experimental design, the study investigates the influential factors of shading percentage (N) and water depth (G) in Azolla growth, systematically ranging from 0% (full sunlight/N1) to 75% (N3) shading percentages and 2.5 cm (G1), 5.0 cm (G2), and 7.5 cm (G3) water depths. In addition to assessing growth and production outcomes, this study explores the nitrogen content in Azolla under three different conditions: fresh, dried, and composted Azolla. Findings unveil the significant influence of shading percentage and water depth on Azolla growth, with the N1G2 treatment identified as the optimal condition for achieving maximum biomass production. Set against the backdrop of tropical agriculture, specifically within the high temperatures in Indonesia, our study underscores the resilience of Azolla to elevated temperatures, highlighting its potential as a nitrogen-fixing agent. Notably, fresh Azolla closely matches urea in nitrogen content, suggesting its potential as an organic fertilizer substitute for urea. This research sheds light on the critical challenges surrounding nitrogenrich biomass production from fresh Azolla, emphasizing the necessity of temperature resilience and water depth optimization. The insights provided hold significance for tropical agriculture practices seeking to harness the potential of Azolla as a free-air nitrogen fixator. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
The effectiveness of the nitrification inhibitors, nitrapyrin and dicyandiamine, in reducing nitrogen loss from soil and preventing reduction in crop yield was evaluated in field studies conducted over dozens of site years in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin on corn, wheat, and a vegetable crop, potato. Both chemicals were effective in retarding the nitrification of ammoniacal fertilizers, including nitrogen from liquid animal manures, but this inhibitor did not always result in yield increases above that obtained with equivalent amounts of nitrogen applied without inhibitor. Greatest benefits for nitrification inhibitor use was obtained on coarse‐textured soils under conditions that were conducive to nitrate nitrogen loss when nitrogen was applied at rates not considered to be excessive.

30. SOIL WATER FLUCTUATIONS IN A LOAMY SAND UNDER IRRIGATED POTATO

Starr, G. C., Cooley, E. T., Lowery, B., and Kelling, K.
- Abstract
Diagnostic indicators were developed to evaluate water storage, infiltration, drainage, and uptake distribution patterns over a potato (Solanum tuberosumL.) hill to improve efficiency in drip and sprinkler irrigation. Soil water content time series were measured in the hills and in the furrow between hills using time domain reflectometry. The drainage indicator was significantly (P= 0.05) higher under sprinkler than drip beneath the furrow and at the toe location. Storage was low at the center under sprinkler irrigation (0.05 m3m−3) where irrigation water did not infiltrate. Water storage was low at the shoulder location under both irrigation systems (significantly greater for sprinkler than drip) where high uptake rates were indicated. A diurnal/sinusoidal model of water uptake was fitted to a composite of the daily cycle of low-amplitude fluctuations with acceptable results (R2= 0.39-0.72) for both systems at the shoulder and toe locations and at the center under drip. Uptake was virtually undetectable (R2= 0.12-0.18) at the base and furrow locations. Deviations from the sinusoidal model were better accounted for by a polynomial model (R2= 0.29-0.83) and seemed to indicate irrigation-induced flow and nonsinusoidal uptake. Electronic noise also contributed to the variability. The indicator of peak uptake time shifted from about 3 p.m. to 8 p.m., and uptake decreased as the depth from the top of the hill increased. Management practices targeted at wetting the hill center under the sprinkler would likely improve water use efficiency under these conditions.

- Abstract
Measurements of dairy manure nutrient availability to crops typically show great variability. Approaches that are more accurate are needed to improve manure management and reduce nutrient loss to the environment. In this study, we compared direct (15N recovery) and indirect (difference method [Diff Meth] and fertilizer equivalence [FE] approach) methods of determining first‐year dairy manure N availability or recovery during three cropping seasons. A field experiment was conducted on a Plano silt loam (fine‐silty, mixed, superactive, mesic Typic Argiudolls) planted to corn (Zea maysL.). Plots received either manure, fertilizer N, or no N. Microplots receiving 15N‐labeled manure were also established each study year. Manure was applied to a new plot each cropping season. Whole‐plant N uptake was the best crop parameter to use for FE estimates. Estimates of N availability by relative effectiveness (Rel Eff), which are derived from the Diff Meth, and FE were similar (32 and 41%, respectively) and higher than unlabeled N or 15N recovery measurements because these indices factor in N use efficiency. Measures of the Rel Eff of manure N use were highly affected by control plot N uptake. The FE approach is less influenced by control plots, but it requires the inclusion of several more treatments and use of mathematical functions to describe crop response to N. These limitations are reflected in the wide ranges obtained for N availability estimates (−60 to 148%). Although apparent N recovery by the Diff Meth (14%) or direct measurements of 15N recovery (16%) were close on average, variability tended to be much lower for the 15N method. In addition, the Diff Meth was highly dependent on initial soil conditions. Use of 15N‐labeled manure, although more costly and time‐consuming, provided more consistent and reliable results.

- Abstract
Improving tuber yield size to boost seed potato (Solanum tuberosum) production efficiency is a paramount goal, particularly in Punjab, India, a major contributor to the nation's seed supply. To optimize nutrient absorption, soil quality, and yield of seed‐sized tubers, research was conducted in Ludhiana and Jalandhar over two years. Employing a split‐plot design, three organic treatments (farmyard manure [FYM], biofertilizer, control) were tested in main plots, while five phosphorus fertilizer levels (46.9, 62.5, 93.8, 125, 0 kg ha−1 P2O5) were examined in subplots. Results revealed that FYM notably enhanced nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium uptake in both haulm and tubers compared to other organics. Moreover, higher phosphorus levels, particularly 125 kg ha−1 P2O5, maximized nutrient uptake. Soil attributes like available nitrogen remained unaffected, whereas phosphorus availability increased with FYM and higher phosphorus levels. Available potassium remained consistent across treatments. Soil pH, electrical conductivity, and organic carbon were unchanged with 125 kg ha−1 P2O5 treatments. FYM and biofertilizer significantly increased total tuber yields, with FYM showing a remarkable 30% boost compared to the control, and 125 kg ha−1 P2O5 phosphorus levels resulting in a notable 24% increase, indicating enhanced seed potato production strategies. Principal component analysis underscored the positive correlation between tuber yield and soil attributes, particularly favoring FYM and 125 kg ha−1 P2O5 treatments. Overall, FYM application and optimal phosphorus fertilizer levels are pivotal for augmenting nutrient uptake, soil health, and yield in seed potato cultivation.Plain Language Summary: Potato farming in Punjab, India, is crucial for the nation's seed potato supply. Optimizing tuber yield size is a primary concern for farmers in this region to enhance seed potato production efficiency. A two‐year study conducted in Ludhiana and Jalandhar aimed to investigate methods to improve nutrient absorption, soil quality, and ultimately the yield of seed‐sized potato tubers. Farmyard manure significantly enhanced nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium uptake in both the haulm (stems and leaves) and tubers, outperforming other organic treatments. Higher phosphorus fertilizer levels, particularly 125 kg ha−1 P2O5, maximized nutrient uptake and contributed to increased tuber yields. Utilizing farmyard manure as an organic treatment and optimizing phosphorus levels, especially at 125 kg ha−1 P2O5, are pivotal for enhancing nutrient uptake, improving soil health, and increasing yields.

- Abstract
Infiltration runoff measurements were made on nine urban lawns using a sprinkling infiltrometer in conjunction with the application of a complete fertilizer at three rates. The amounts of inorganic N, P, and K removed with the runoff water were determined. Results of the infiltration measurements show that the presence of textural and compaction discontinuities within the soil profile, formed during building and lawn construction, was probably the greatest factor affecting infiltration. Where these discontinuities were distinct, water intake was reduced to about 35% of that for a lawn with an undisturbed profile. For lawns with similar infiltration characteristics, a first order relationship appeared to exist between amounts of fertilizer applied and amounts lost. A second order equation, however, best described the relationship between percent of applied fertilizer in the runoff and 90‐min cumulative infiltration. When the simulated storm was applied immediately after fertilizer application, fertilizer losses averaged 10.6%; however, when fertilizer application was followed by recommended watering before the intense storm, average losses were reduced to 1.7% of the amount applied.

Wolkowski, R. P., Kelling, K. A., and Oplinger, E. S.
- Abstract
The effect of soil applications of WEX, Basic H, and Amway Spray Adjuvant was evaluated using corn (Zea maysL.), soybean [Glycine max(L.) Merr.], or potato (Solanum tuberosumL.) as test crops at three Wisconsin locations. Each wetting agent is a nonionic surfactant, and claims or has claimed to improve crop yield, quality, and nutrient availability. WEX was evaluated at recommended fertilization levels. Amway and Basic H, in the corn experiments, were evaluated at varying levels of applied N. Basic H was evaluated on potatoes at 30, 50, and 100% of the entire recommended fertilization program. Although crop yield was increased by fertilization in all cases, no yield improvements were observed from the use of any wetting agent at any fertilizer rate. No differences in nutrient availability as evidenced by foliar nutrient content of N, P, and K or crop protein levels were observed in association with the application of a wetting agent.

35. Papermill Lime‐Sludge as an Alternative Liming Material1

Simson, C. R., Kelling, K. A., and Liegel, E. A.
- Abstract
Calcitic papermill lime‐sludge, a by‐product of the kraft paper process, was evaluated as a liming material and its equivalency with dolomitic agricultural limestone determined. An incubation study involving 10 medium‐ or light‐textured Wisconsin soils demonstrated that lime‐sludge neutralizes soil acidity very rapidly. Maximum soil pH was achieved in less than 1 week after application of the lime‐sludge, while the pH of soils treated with finely‐ground agricultural limestone increased continuously throughout the 24‐week incubation period. In field trials conducted for 3 years on two different soils, corn (Zea maysL.) was followed by alfalfa (Medicago sativaL.) or birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatusL.). Both legumes responded favorably to liming but not differently to the lime‐sludge and agricultural limestone, whereas a response was not observed for corn. Yield data provided no evidence that use of the calcitic lime‐sludge created Mg stress in any tested crop. Plant tissue analyses and the absence of a yield response to soil‐applied MgSO4•7H2O supported this observation. The liming equivalency of lime‐sludge to agricultural limestone was examined under both laboratory and field conditions. Both suggested that 1 m3of the lime‐sludge has the same liming value as 1.1 metric tons of agricultural limestone with a neutralizing index of 60 to 69. This value is considerably less than the equivalency of 1.5 yd.3of lime‐sludge per ton of 60 to 69 agricultural limestone specified by Wisconsin Administrative Code.

36. First‐Year Nutrient Availability from Injected Dairy Manure

Motavalli, P. P., Kelling, K. A., and Converse, J. C.
- Abstract
Estimates of N, P, and K availability to corn (Zea maysL.) from injected dairy manure on three field sites in south central Wisconsin were made using a fertilizer equivalence approach. Nutrient uptake from treatments of a control, three rates of manure (approx. 53, 97, and 138 Mg ha−1yr−1on a wet basis), and three rates of broadcast fertilizer were evaluated. Crop nutrient recoveries of fertilizer N, P, and K were generally higher than crop recoveries of manure total N, P, and K. Estimates of first year N, P, and K availability showed substantial variability across rate, location, and year with standard deviations often about 50% of the mean. Ranges for N, P, or K availability were 12 to 63, 12 to 89, and 24 to 153%, respectively. These data do not identify those factors responsible for differences in nutrient availability from one site‐year to another. Biological or chemical availability indices of a 1‐wk anaerobic incubation at 40 °C or a 16‐h autoclaving in 0.01 MCaCl2solution were evaluated as measures of N availability and compared with field results. Correlations between measured changes in NH4‐N from these indices, as well as total Kjeldahl N and inorganic N levels in the top 30 cm of soil 4 to 6 wk after treatment application, and N uptake indicated inorganic N levels to be a better index of N availability than the other indices examined. However, to determine nutrient availability on a routine basis, more reliable biological or chemical indices are necessary. A simple model may help to simulate environmental effects and the contribution of residual nutrients in the soil.

37. Effect of Calcium Source and Application Method on Potato Yield and Cation Composition

Simmons, K. E., Kelling, K. A., Wolkowski, R. P., and Kelman, A.
- Abstract
Calcium applications to low Ca, sandy soils can improve potato (Solanum tuberosumL.) grade and USlA size grade, and these improvements are significantly correlated with increased periderm Ca concentrations. This study evaluated the effectiveness of several Ca sources (pelleted CaSO4, granulated CaSO4, sieved CaSO4, dolomitic lime, triple superphosphate, or CaCl2), methods of application (broadcast, sidedress, and preplant strip), and rates (84–336 kg Ca ha−1) on increasing tuber Ca on two irrigated loamy sands (Typic Udipsamments) in Wisconsin from 1983 to 1985. The addition of Ca increased the percent of grade USlA tubers, the yield of prime size (<170–370 g) USlA tubers, and periderm Ca concentrations. It also reduced the percent of USlB or cull tubers, the yield of small (170 g) USlA tubers, and the concentration of periderm Mg. Improvements of grade USlA tubers ranged from 3 to l0%, and yield of USlA prime tubers was increased from 2 to 10 Mg ha−1. Dolomitic lime, triple superphosphate, and CaCl2did not consistently improve tuber yield or grade, whereas CaSO4in any of the forms applied was an effective Ca source. In 1985, a vertical cross‐section of the potato hill was sampled to determine the distribution of exchangeable Ca in the hill for each application method. The accumulation and uptake of Ca in the plant tops and in tuber periderm and medullar tissue for an untreated control and each application method were determined at several times during the season. The preplant strip method concentrated more material in the central portion of the potato hill where the tubers formed, and increased Ca uptake in both periderm and medullar tissue compared to the sidedress and broadcast treatments. Calcium concentration and uptake in the plant tops was not affected by any method of Ca application. Total Ca uptake averaged 8.5 and 32.9 kg Ca ha−1in the tuber and plant tops, respectively.

38. The Fate of Nitrogen from Injected Liquid Manure in a Silt Loam Soil

Comfort, S. D., Kelling, K. A., Keeney, D. R., and Converse, J. C.
- Abstract
A field experiment was conducted on a Piano silt loam (Typic Argiudoll) in southcentral Wisconsin to monitor N transformations following liquid manure injections. Liquid manure with and without a nitrification inhibitor [nitrapyrin, 2‐chloro‐6‐(trichloromethyl)pyridine, 13 mg a.i. L−1liquid manure] was injected into an uncropped area in June 1985. Soil samples were taken using a grid placed over the vertical cross‐section of the injected bands permitting spatial sampling in the vertical plane. Sampling was done 5, 12, 26, 39, 67, 99, and 350 d after manure application by progressive exposure of the band. Soil water content, pH, NH4‐N, (NO2+ NO3)‐N, Cl, and water‐soluble C were determined. The synagraphic computer program, SYMAP, was used to evaluate spatial changes in inorganic N concentrations in the manure injection zone. Nitrapyrin was not effective in inhibiting nitrification at the rate used. Nitrification occurred at the outer fringes of the band within 5 d; maximum concentrations of 300 to 800 mg NO3‐N kg−1occurred throughout the injection zone at 26 d. High respiratory activity in the injection zone was indicated by an almost threefold decrease in water‐soluble C between day 5 (750 mg C kg−1) and day 12 (270 mg C kg−1). Water content remained higher than the surrounding soil in the injection zone for 99 d. Once NO3leaching occurred, NO3‐N/Cl ratios decreased with depth under the injection zone. The abundant supply of NO3and readily oxidizable C, combined with the high moisture environment, led to the conclusion that liquid manure injections created an environment conducive for denitrification.

39. Nitrous Oxide Production from Injected Liquid Dairy Manure

Comfort, S. D., Kelling, K. A., Keeney, D. R., and Converse, J. C.
- Abstract
Injection of liquid organic wastes into soil promotes conditions that may be conducive to denitrification by creating an anaerobic environment abundant in inorganic N and readily oxidizable C. To quantify gaseous N loss, we measured N2O emissions from simulated waste injections applied to soils in large wooden containers (71 by 42 by 44 cm). These containers were equipped with headspace covers for gas entrapment, soil‐atmosphere wells, C2H2‐dispersion tubes, soil moisture‐temperature cells, and end‐entry doors for soil sampling. Soil type was a Plano silt loam (fine‐silty, mixed, mesic Typic Argiudoll) packed to a bulk density of 1.1 Mg m−3and maintained at a constant temperature of 12.0 ± 1.4 °C. Liquid dairy manure was injected into the soil at rates commonly used for crop production (79 000 L ha−1). The nitrification inhibitor nitrapyrin [2‐chloro‐6‐(trichloromethyl) pyridine] was used to further evaluate nitrification‐denitrification losses. Nitrous oxide emissions, with and without C2H2treatment, were estimated by passing air across the soil surface above an injection zone and trapping emitted N2O onto a molecular sieve. The largest emission of N2O occurred shortly after injection, followed by a shift to N2. Maximum gaseous‐N loss occurred 5 d after injection and corresponded with maximum CO2concentrations in the soil atmosphere. Nitrapyrin was effective in controlling nitrification, but did not consistently influence the rate of denitrification. When we simulated 190 mm of precipitation at 25 d after injection, increases in N2O production were minimal, possibly due to a limitation in readily oxidizable C. Total measured gaseous‐N loss in the presence of C2H2over 40 d accounted for 2.5 to 3.2% of the slurry's NH4‐N, or 1.0 to 1.3% of the total N added.

Wolkowski, R. P. and Kelling, K. A.
- Abstract
Corn (Zea maysL.) and potato (Solanum tuberosumL., ‘Russet Burbank’) were grown with and without the addition of the soil additive Symbex at different levels of fertilization. Symbex is marketed as a microbial soil inoculant claiming to accelerate decomposition of crop residue and N fixation. The efficacy of Symbex on the yield and quality of the two crops was evaluated at two sites for corn and one site for potato on a Typic Argiudoll, a Typic Hapludalf, and Typic Udipsamment, respectively, each for 3 years. Rates of fertilizer were 0, 20, 104, and 188 kg ha−1total N applied in the corn studies and 30, 50, and 100% of 756 kg ha−15‐10‐30 starter plus 224 kg ha−1of supplemental N in the potato study. Although both corn and potato yields were increased by fertilization, the use of Symbex did not affect the yield of either crop at any fertilizer rate. Foliar nutrient content of N, P, and K when compared by a paired t test over all fertility levels showed no differences associated with Symbex treatment by either crop. Symbex increased the rate of emergence of potato at all levels of fertility. A trend toward decreased size of grade US1A tubers was observed where Symbex was used.

Collins, Michael, Lang, D. J., and Kelling, K. A.
- Abstract
The influence of P, K, and S on symbiotic fixation of N2in alfalfa nodules under field conditions is not well documented, even though through this mechanism shoot yield may be limited. The objective of this experiment was to study the effect of P, K, and S fertilization on alfalfa shoot yield, nodule numbers, and N2‐fixation as estimated by acetylene reduction by taking core samples (80 mm diam) at two sampling times at two locations (a silt loam and a loamy sand soil). Potassium fertilization increased shoot weight per plant, nodule number per core, and N2‐fixation rate at both locations more than the other nutrients studied. Shoot weight per plant increased 166% on the silt loam soil and 178% on the sandy soil with the addition of 448 kg K ha−1. Phosphorus fertilization also increased shoot weight at both sites but less than did K fertilization. Addition of P and S increased nodule numbers on the sandy soil but not on the silt loam soil. Nitrogen‐fixation rate was increased by 2.8 fold with the addition of 224 kg K ha−1on the sandy soil and 1.7 fold on the silt loam soil. Increased N2‐fixation resulted from K fertilization only when P was added to the silt loam soil. Phosphorus addition increased nodule numbers and N2‐fixation only on the sandy soil. The presence of a K ✕ S interaction for N2‐fixation but not for shoot weight or nodule number per core indicates that some differences in fertility response exist between N2‐fixation and other variables, even though all tend to be positively correlated. Sulfur fertilization had no effect on shoot weight but increased nodule numbers in alfalfa grown on sandy soil.

Kelling, K. A., Peterson, A. E., Walsh, L. M., Ryan, J. A., and Keeney, D. R.
- Abstract
Anaerobically digested liquid sewage sludge was applied to field plots at rates of 0, 3.75, 7.5, 15, 30, and 60 metric tons dry solids/ha on a Warsaw sandy loam and a Piano silt loam during the summer of 1971. Additional experiments were established at both locations in 1972 and 1973 using the same treatment rates. Following sludge application the 1971 and 1972 trials were planted to rye (Secale cerealeL.). After rye forage harvest the following spring, the residual crop responses were tested with corn (Zea maysL.) on the 1971 and 1972 experimental areas for up to 3 years. The 1973 plots were initially cropped to sorghum‐sudan (Sorghum bicolorL. Moench × S. sudaneseP. Stapf.) followed by 1 year of corn. Yields of the first crop following sludge application typically increased significantly up to the 7.5‐metric ton/ha rate on the silt loam soil, and up to the 15‐metric tons/ha rate on the sandy loam soil. This corresponded to an application of 190 and 380 kg/ha of available N, and 183 and 366 kg/ha of total P for the 7.5 and 15 metric tons/ha rates, respectively. In some cases, the 30‐ and 60‐metric tons/ha rates depressed the first crop yields, possibly because of large amounts of soluble salts in the sludge. Residual benefits from sludge were evident for at least 3 years at the higher treatment rates. Increasing rates of sludge generally resulted in marked increases in the concentration of N and P in plant tissue. Total recovery by up to four successive crops averaged about 50% for available N and 7% for P at the low treatment rate, and about 14% for N and 3% for P at the highest treatment rate.

43. A Field Study of the Agricultural Use of Sewage Sludge: II. Effect on Soil N and P

Kelling, K. A., Walsh, L. M., Keeney, D. R., Ryan, J. A., and Peterson, A. E.
- Abstract
Liquid digested sewage sludge applied at rates from 3.75 to 60 metric ton/ha significantly increased the concentrations of inorganic N, organic N, and Bray P1extractable P in a sandy loam and a silt loam soil in south‐central Wisconsin. Most of the applied inorganic N was as NH4‐N and was nitrified rapidly. At sludge rates of 30 metric ton/ha or more, substantial losses of sludge‐applied N occurred by leaching. Soil solution NO3‐N concentrations exceeded 100 mg/liter at the 120‐ to 150‐cm depth 10 weeks after the first sludge application on the permeable sandy loam, and after about 1 year on the silt loam. The N balance indicated that considerable amounts of N may have been lost by denitrification, volatilization, or both, where > 30 metric ton/ha were applied. Mineralization of organic N was more rapid than previously reported. Up to 50% of the applied organic N was mineralized within 3 weeks after the last sludge application. During the remaining 25 months of the experiment, the mineralization rate was essentially constant at about 250 mg organic N/kg of soil/year at the 60 metric ton/ha sludge rate, and 180 mg organic N/kg of soil/year at the 30 metric ton/ha rate. Sludge applications resulted in immediate marked increases in Bray P1extractable P. However, the extractable P levels decreased with time after sludge application, probably as a result of P fixation. Significant amounts of P remained available for at least 2 years at the higher treatment rates.

Kelling, K. A., Keeney, D. R., Walsh, L. M., and Ryan, J. A.
- Abstract
Metal concentrations in soil and plant tissue resulting from land application of liquid digested sewage sludge were examined by determining Cu, Zn, Cd, Ni, and Cr in rye (Secale cerealeL.) and sorghum‐sudan (Sorghum bicolorL. Moench × S. sudaneseP. Stapf.) forage tissue, in corn (Zea maysL.) grain and stover, and DTPA‐extractable metals in soil. Four crops were grown successively after the application of up to 60 metric ton/ha (dry solids basis) of liquid sewage sludge on a sandy loam and a silt loam in Wisconsin. In general, the addition of sludge increased the concentrations of Cu, Zn, Cd, and Ni in the vegetative tissue but, except for Zn, the additions had relatively little effect on the metal content of corn grain. Chromium did not accumulate in the tissue or grain. In all cases, concentrations of metals were below levels considered to be toxic to the crops grown. Total recovery of added metals by the four crops was < 1% for Cu, Cd, Ni, and Cr, and 1 to 3% for Zn. Levels of DTPA‐extractable Cu, Zn, Cd, and Ni, but not Cr, increased with sludge treatment. Regression analysis showed that DTPA might be useful as a predictor of metal concentrations in the vegetative portions of the plant. However, the relationships were not the same for different crops. The decreases in metal concentrations in the plant tissue and in DTPA extracts with successive crops indicated reversion to less available forms for Zn, Cd, and possibly Ni. The ratio of Cd:Zn in the tissue was about one‐third that of the sludge for all crops.

PROGNOSIS ,OVARIAN cancer ,CELL growth ,DELAYED diagnosis ,BIOLOGY - Abstract
Ovarian cancer (OVC) is one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths in women worldwide. Despite advancements in detection and therapy, the prognosis of OVC remains poor due to late diagnosis and the lack of effective therapeutic options at advanced stages. Therefore, a better understanding of the biology underlying OVC is essential for the development of effective strategies for early detection and targeted therapies. Nuclear receptors (NRs) are a superfamily of 48 transcription factors that, upon binding to their specific ligand, play a vital role in regulating various cellular processes such as growth, development, metabolism, and homeostasis. Accumulating evidence from several studies has shown that their aberrant expression is associated with multiple human diseases. Numerous NRs have shown significant effects in the development of various cancers, including OVC. This review summarizes the recent findings on the role of NRs inOVC, as well as their potential as prognostic and therapeutic markers. Further, the basic structure and signaling mechanism of NRs have also been discussed briefly. Moreover, this review highlights their cellular and molecular mechanisms in chemoresistance and chemosensitization. Further, the clinical trials targeting NRs for the treatment of OVC have also been discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Men tend to eat more meat than women, but it is not clear why. We tested three hypotheses in a cross-cultural design (20,802 individuals in 23 countries across four continents): that gender differences are (a) universal, (b) related to gender roles and thus weaker in countries with higher gender equality and human development, or (c) related to opportunities to express gender roles and thus stronger in countries with higher gender equality and human development. Across all countries, men tended to consume more meat than women. However, this difference increased significantly in countries with greater human development and gender equality. The paradoxical gender gap in meat consumption aligns with previous research that suggests greater differences in behavior across genders in contexts that are more developed and gender equal. We discuss implications for theories of culture and gender as well as practical implications for global meat reduction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
