Abstract:Nitrification inhibitors were evaluated for their capacity to retard oxidation of ammonium in a pine bark medium. Nitrapyrin, captan, etridiazole, and metalaxyl were added to a pine bark medium in amounts ranging from none to 133% of manufacturers' or research-based recommendations. Inhibition of nitrification was assessed by measurements of appearance of nitrate and disappearance of ammonium at 4-wk intervals for 12 wk. The effects of these chemicals on the growth and nitrogen (N) composition of privet (Ligus… Show more
