Damage suffered by swamp morning glory (Ipomoea aquatica Forsk) exposed to vanadium(V)
To elucidate the physiological and morphological responses generated by vanadium (V) in plants, hydroponic culture experiments were performed with swamp morning glory (Ipomoea aquatica Forsk) exposed to 0 to 2.50 mg L−1 pentavalent V [V(V)] in Hoagland nutrient solutions. The concentration of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and carotene peaked at a V(V) concentration of 0.05 mg L−1 and gradually ...

The future of agriculture: saving water with Hydroponic Crops
In the hydroponic crops, the plants complete their vegetative cycle without the necessity of using the soil. The water with mineral nutrition (total or partial) is provided through a solution in which the different essential nutrients for their development are dissolved. The future of modern agriculture goes through the optimal use of one of the most limited and most important resources: water. ...

Toxicity and bioaccumulation potential of Cr (VI) and Hg (II) on differential concentration by
Eichhornia crassipes in hydroponic cultureIn this work, the phytoremediation of Cr (VI) and Hg (II) ion from water by an aquatic plant Eichhornia crassipes has been studied. Plants were cultured in a double distillated water with modified Hoagland’s nutrient solution at pH 6.8 supplemented with 0, 0.75, 1.50, 2.50, and 4 mg Cr/L as potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) and 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 mg Hg/L as mercuric chloride (HgCl2). They were ...

IDHA chelates as a micronutrient source for green bean and tomato in fertigation and hydroponics
The new biodegradable chelating agent imidodisuccinic acid (IDHA) has been studied for its application in agriculture. This study was conducted to compare the efficiency of mixed IDHA and ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) formulations to provide Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu to green bean (Phaseolus vulgaris ‘Perfección negra polo’) and tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill. ‘Shiren’) plants grown in ...

Barley root hair growth and morphology in soil, sand, and water solution media and relationship with nickel toxicity
Barley, Hordeum vulgare (Doyce), was grown in the three media of soil, hydroponic sand solution (sand), and hydroponic water solution (water) culture at the same environmental conditions for 4 d (days). Barley roots were scanned and root morphology was analyzed. Plants grown in the three media had different root morphology and Ni toxicity response. Root elongations and total root lengths ...
