Abstract:From the viewpoint of conservation-oriented agriculture, a closed soilless cultivation using an organic substrate is desirable. We found that photocatalytic treatment efficiently decomposed phytotoxic compounds from rice hull, and the growth and yield of tomatoes in a closed system with the treatment were superior to a system without it. To enhance disease control in the system, this study investigated the suppression of bacterial wilt disease in a simulated waste nutrient solution with photocatalytic and silv… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
