Nutritional needs• Autotrophic does not
mean autonomous– plants need…• sun as an energy
source• inorganic compounds
as raw materials–water (H2O)
– CO2
–minerals

Macronutrients• Plants require these nutrients in relatively
large amounts– C, O, H, N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S
![Page 5: Plant Nutrition (Ch. 37) Physiological adaptation Dogs pee on trees…Why don’t trees pee on dogs? NH 3 animal waste plant nutrient](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e805503460f94b847d2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Micronutrients• Plants require in very small amounts– Cl, Fe, Mn, Bo, Zi, Ni, Mb– primarily cofactors for enzyme function
![Page 8: Plant Nutrition (Ch. 37) Physiological adaptation Dogs pee on trees…Why don’t trees pee on dogs? NH 3 animal waste plant nutrient](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e805503460f94b847d2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Nutrient deficiencies• Lack of essential nutrients – exhibit specific symptoms• dependent on
function of nutrient• dependent on
solubility of nutrient
![Page 9: Plant Nutrition (Ch. 37) Physiological adaptation Dogs pee on trees…Why don’t trees pee on dogs? NH 3 animal waste plant nutrient](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e805503460f94b847d2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Magnesium deficiency• Symptoms– chlorosis = yellowing of leaves– Why? What is magnesium’s function?
Take 2 fertilizer pellets
& call me in the morning

Chlorophyll
Why does magnesium deficiency cause chlorosis?
The chlorosis shows up in older leaves first, because plant moves Mg+ to newer leaves. Why?
![Page 11: Plant Nutrition (Ch. 37) Physiological adaptation Dogs pee on trees…Why don’t trees pee on dogs? NH 3 animal waste plant nutrient](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e805503460f94b847d2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The role of soils• Plants are dependent on soil quality– texture / structure• relative amounts of various sizes of soil particles
– composition• organic & inorganic chemical components• fertility
Agronomistsreally dig dirt!
![Page 12: Plant Nutrition (Ch. 37) Physiological adaptation Dogs pee on trees…Why don’t trees pee on dogs? NH 3 animal waste plant nutrient](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e805503460f94b847d2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Importance of organic matter• Topsoil– most important to plant growth– rich in organic matter• humus– decomposing organic material » breakdown of dead organisms, feces, fallen
leaves & other organic refuse by bacteria & fungi
– improves soil texture– reservoir of minerals
– organisms• 1 tsp. of topsoil has ~5 billion bacteria
living with fungi, algae, protists, insects, earthworms, nematodes
So don’t rakeyour lawn or
bag your leaves

Soil health as a global issueNot taking care of soil health has far-reaching, damaging consequences– 1920’s Dust Bowl– lack of soil conservation
• growing the same crop year after year (wheat)• grazing by cattle• bare ground exposed to
wind erosion in winter• drought

Soil health as a global issue
• Soil conservation & sustainable agriculture– maintaining healthy environment– sustainable production of food supply– economically viable farming industry
contour plowing crop rotation
“A sustainable agriculture does not deplete soils or people.” – Wendell Berry

Fertilizers• “Organic” fertilizers– manure, compost, fishmeal
• “Chemical” fertilizers– commercially manufactured– N-P-K (ex. 15-10-5)• 15% nitrogen• 10% phosphorus • 5% potassium
What are thepolitical, economic,
environmentalissues?
![Page 17: Plant Nutrition (Ch. 37) Physiological adaptation Dogs pee on trees…Why don’t trees pee on dogs? NH 3 animal waste plant nutrient](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e805503460f94b847d2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Nitrogen uptake• Nitrates– plants can only take up nitrate (NO3
-)• Nitrogen cycle by bacteria– trace path of nitrogen fixation!
What will the plant use N for?
root
![Page 18: Plant Nutrition (Ch. 37) Physiological adaptation Dogs pee on trees…Why don’t trees pee on dogs? NH 3 animal waste plant nutrient](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e805503460f94b847d2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Soybean root nodules• N fixation by Rhizobium bacteria
– symbiotic relationship with bean family (legumes)

Increasing soil fertility• Cover crops– growing a field of plants just to
plow them under• usually a legume crop• taking care of soil’s health– puts nitrogen back in soil
erosion control, too
A farmer… outstandingin his field?
Plow it under?Why would you
that?

Plants of peat bogs• High acid environment– most minerals & nutrients bound up & are not
available to plants• must find alternative sources of nutrients

3. The best explanation for the shape of this growth response curve is that
A. the plant requires air in the soil for photosynthesis. B. the roots are able to absorb more nitrogen (N2) in high
levels of air.C. most of the decrease in weight at low air levels is due
to transpiration from the leaves.D. increased soil air produces more root mass in the soil
but does not affect the top stems and leaves.E. the roots require oxygen for respiration and growth.
