Degradation and transport of veterinary antibiotics and estrogens in a vegetated buffer strip system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
properties that enhance the removal of organic pollutants and thus may be a useful tool for mitigating VA and estrogen transport from agricultural lands. Native warm-season grasses used in VBS have shown to enhance soil quality by stimulation of microbial...
Soil surface-seal measurement using high-resolution x-ray computed tomography (HRCT)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Rainfall on bare soil breaks soil aggregates, detaching particles, plugging pores and decreasing porosity in the top few mm of soil. This reduces hydraulic conductivity and increases runoff through a process known as surface ...
Cover crop effects on corn plant water uptake and soil health
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
pore distributional characteristics of the surface soil layer. The study was conducted at Bradford Research Center, University of Missouri, Columbia and the Chariton County, Cover Crop Soil Health Research and Demonstration Farm (CCSH), Missouri in 2016...
Effects of a consortia probiotic inoculant on soil microorganisms and impacts on autoinducers employed in quorum sensing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
Disease control in plant agriculture is largely achieved through application of various antimicrobials. Manipulation of indigenous soil microbial communities received attention as it promises improved pathogen control and enhanced plant outputs...
