“…These results were found according to Vogel et al . [ 6 ] who determined that the application of 3,4‐dimethylpyrazole phosphate as a nitrification inhibitor (NI) increased the fixation of ammonium in the soil. The thus nitrification process was slowed down by NI in the soil increasing the amount of ammonium in the soil solution.…”

“…During hydrolysis, urea N is converted into ammonia (NH3) which subsequently reacts with a proton and produces NH4 + . [6] In nitrification, the ammonium ions are transformed into nitrate via nitrite, and nitrous oxide is produced as a byproduct. [7] The conversion of ammonium ions to nitrate is performed primarily by soil-living bacteria and other nitrifying bacteria.…”

In the current research, nitrification inhibitors such as 2,5‐dichloroaniline, ammonium thiosulphate, and their combination (1:1) were used to slow down the nitrification process to increase the nitrogen availability for crops. The various levels of 0.1, 0.25, and 0.5 % were used for each inhibitor on three types of soil. Leachates were collected from each treatment, add 1ml of 0.1 % chromotropic acid solution and 6 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid, swirled in the flask, and left at room temperature, yellow color was developed after 45 minutes. Then absorbance reading was noted for each sample by spectrophotometer at the wavelength of 430 nm. NO3‐ ‐N content was determined by the standard curve method. From inhibitors, the combination of both inhibitors shows minimum NO3‐ ‐N content as 154.29 and 112.83 ppm than other chemicals for 2nd and 14th days respectively. From soil, Sheikhupura soil shows minimum NO3‐ ‐N in the leachate as 176.26 (2nd day) and 105.03 ppm (14th day) as compared to other soils. From the levels, 0.25 % shows minimum NO3‐ ‐N as 118.05 (2nd day) and 63.18 ppm (14th day) as compared to other levels. The combination (1:1) and the level 0.25 % were found more suitable to reduce the nitrification process in Sheikhupura soil.

Scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM) provides the imaging of biological specimens allowing the parallel collection of localized spectroscopic information by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and/or X-ray Absorption Near Edge Spectroscopy (XANES). The complex metabolic mechanisms which can take place in biological systems can be explored by these techniques by tracing even small quantities of the chemical elements involved in the metabolic pathways. Here, we present a review of the most recent publications in the synchrotrons’ scenario where soft X-ray spectro-microscopy has been employed in life science as well as in environmental research.

“…Among the used nitrification inhibitors, 3, 4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) is one of the most widespread. In several studies it has been shown that the use of DMPP reduced the emissions of nitrous oxide (N 2 O) from agricultural soils (Kong, Eriksen, and Petersen 2018;Nauer et al 2018;Wu et al 2018), and improved N use efficiency and crop productivity (Mart ınez et al 2017;Vogel et al 2020).…”

Controlled-release and stabilized fertilizers are equivalent options to split application of ammonium nitrate in a double maize-oats cropping system

The application of fertilizers as a topdressing in maize raises serious concerns because too much fertilizer is retained in the upper leaves, causing burning to the tissues. In this study, the use of a controlled-release and a stabilized fertilizer (with 3, 4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate) was compared with the application of a conventional fertilizer split into two equivalent applications in a forage maize-oats cropping system. In maize, 100 and 200 kg N ha À1 of different fertilizers were used in addition to an unfertilized control. The oat crop was not fertilized, since it served only as a winter catch crop. Maize dry matter (DM) yield increased significantly with N rate only in 2019, being the second growing season, with the control showing the lowest average value (7.1 t ha À1 ). The most fertilized treatments (200 kg N ha À1 ) gave the highest DM yields, ranging between 14.2 and 16.7 t ha À1 , but with no significant differences between them. Oats had a relevant role as a catch crop recovering residual N that could have potentially been lost from the soil. Stalk nitrate concentration proved to be very sensitive to N fertilization (varying from 150.4 to 1945.6 mg kg À1 in 2018 and 494.9 to 1574.9 mg kg À1 in 2019), showing great potential as a tool of N management. These three fertilization strategies seem to be valid options that farmers can consider, after incorporating technical-economic information related to equipment suitability and the price of fertilizers.
