Table of ContentsMain Symbols 1: Introduction 2: Soil and Plant Water 3: Solute Interchange between Solid, Liquid, and Gas Phases in the Soil 4: Local Movement of Solutes in Soil 5: The Uptake Properties of the Root System 6: Solute Transport in the Soil near Root Surfaces 7: Chemical and Physical Modification of the Rhizosphere 8: Microbiological Modification of the Rhizosphere 9: Root System Architecture, Density, and Measurement 10: The Mineral Nutrition of Single Plants in Soil 11: Solute Transport and Crop Growth Models in the Field References IndexReviewsThe book contains a wealth of quantitative information in the form of tables and figures on the processes of solute movement and plant nutrient uptake. ... a valuable reference for senior university students and other scientists engaged in research on solute movement, plant nutrition, rhizosphere processes, and crop growth. --Journal of Environmental Quality, American Society of Agronomy<br> The book remains rigorous in its attention to the mechanistic details of the biophysical and biochemical processes, and their mathematical description. Yet despite this analytical vigor, the text is easily read by those not mathematically adept. This is complemented by the uncluttered diagrams which make for easy interpretation. ... if you want one book that clearly describes and critically reviews our current understanding of solute movement in the rhizosphere, then this is it. --Soil Science<br> <br> The book contains a wealth of quantitative information in the form of tables and figures on the processes of solute movement and plant nutrient uptake. ... a valuable reference for senior university students and other scientists engaged in research on solute movement, plant nutrition, rhizosphere processes, and crop growth. --Journal of Environmental Quality, American Society of Agronomy<p><br> The book remains rigorous in its attention to the mechanistic details of the biophysical and biochemical processes, and their mathematical description.
