1、Silencing of an aphid carboxylesterase gene by use of plant
Because aphids require an elevated level of CbE E4 expression to grow on leaves treated with Phoxim solution (Sogorb and Vilanova 2002), down-regula-tion of the CbE E4 gene might reduce aphid tolerance to Phoxim pesticides.
2、Environmental behaviors of phoxim with two formulations in bamboo forest under soil surface mulching
Results showed that the environmental behaviors (distribution, degradation, residue) of phoxim in the bamboo forest were significantly influenced by the type of formulation. The prolongation effect from phoxim G might cause persistence and long-term environmental risk.
3、Effect of optimal irrigation, different fertilization, and reduced tillage on soil organic carbon storage and crop yields in the North China Plain
Different agricultural managements were designed, including optimal (OPT) and conventional (CON) irrigation and fertilization treatments, different amounts of fertilization application and residue-return treatments, and different tillage practices.
4、Inoculations with Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Increase Vegetable Yields and Decrease Phoxim Concentrations in Carrot and Green Onion and Their Soils
We hypothesize that AM inoculation may make a contribution to plant growth and phoxim degradation in a phoxim-contaminated soil, if the applied AM fungi are not sensitive to phoxim.
Dynamics of phoxim residues in green onion and soil as influenced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
In the present study, a greenhouse pot culture experiment was carried out using green onion, one most common vegetable in China.
Modelling the optimal phosphate fertiliser and soil management strategy for crops
This work has given us a better understanding of the important factors concerning cultivation methods and fertiliser treatments, with the aim to guide future field studies on potential optimal strategies which can improve P efficiency in crops.
Responses of fungal community composition to longâ term chemical and organic fertilization strategies in Chinese Mollisols
To broaden our knowledge, we used high- throughput pyrosequencing and quantitative PCR to explore the response of soil fungal community to long- term chemical and organic fertilization strategies.
Managing irrigation and fertilization for the sustainable cultivation of greenhouse vegetables
Further studies are required to assess whether, and to what extent, conventional cultivation practices can be revised to identify optimum levels of irrigation and fertilizer application without yield decline.
Assessing the effectiveness of split fertilization and cover crop cultivation in order to conserve soil and water resources and improve crop
The aim of this study is to suggest strategies for a permanent reduction of sediment and nitrate from this catchment through an efficient application of best management practices (BMPs).
Effects of different fertilization regimes on nitrogen and phosphorus losses by surface runoff and bacterial community in a vegetable soil
Different fertilization regimes were applied in a long-term chili (Capsicum spp. L.) production soil to study the effects on nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) runoff losses, microbial biomass, microbial community, and crop yields.
Leek is a common vegetable with a short growth cycle and high fertilizer requirements. Phoxim, a widely used pesticide, primarily targets crop pests. its application must prioritize safety and environmental protection. For fertilization, a combination of organic and chemical fertilizers is recommended to enhance leek growth and yield.
I. Selection and Application of Organic Fertilizers
-
Chicken Manure: Rich in nutrients, chicken manure provides essential elements for leeks. Before use, it should be composted to improve efficacy. Composted chicken manure can be mixed with chemical fertilizers to boost growth.
-
Farm Manure: A traditional organic fertilizer made from fermented animal and plant residues, farm manure enriches soil structure and fertility. Avoid overapplication to prevent root burn.
-
Green Manure: Produced via photosynthesis (e.g., legumes), green manure increases soil organic matter. Crops like alfalfa or Chinese milk vetch can be grown alongside leeks to improve soil health.
II. Selection and Application of Chemical Fertilizers
-
Nitrogen Fertilizers: Key for plant growth. Use products like urea or ammonium nitrate, but avoid overapplication to prevent excessive stalk growth.
-
Phosphorus Fertilizers: Enhance root development and disease resistance. Options include diammonium phosphate or superphosphate, but limit use to avoid soil acidification.
-
Potassium Fertilizers: Improve stress resistance and photosynthesis. Use potassium sulfate or potassium chloride, but monitor to prevent soil salinization.
III. Fertilization Methods
-
Base Fertilizer: Prior to planting, blend organic and chemical fertilizers evenly into the soil to ensure adequate nutrient supply.
-
Topdressing: During growth, apply additional fertilizers based on plant needs. Dissolve chemicals in water for irrigation.
-
Foliar Spraying: Directly apply diluted chemical fertilizers to leaves for efficient nutrient absorption.
IV. Precautions
-
Safety First: When using pesticides, wear protective gear (e.g., gloves, masks) and follow safety protocols to avoid accidental ingestion or skin contact. Handle fertilizers with care to minimize exposure.
-
Environmental Protection: Prevent water and soil contamination by reducing pesticide runoff and fertilizer leaching. Avoid polluting groundwater or rivers.
-
Nutritional Balance: Maintain equilibrium among nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Over-reliance on single nutrients can disrupt plant health. Prioritize organic fertilizers to sustain soil ecology.
when using Phoxim, prioritize safety and environmental responsibility. Combine organic and chemical fertilizers to optimize leek growth and yield while avoiding issues like soil acidification or salinization through balanced practices.
