| Abstract | The effect of modification of the rhizosphere pH, via solution-N concentration and source, on rice flower (Ozothamnus diosmifolius, Astraceae) growth was investigated in two different experiments. In order to simulate a wide range of pHs easily, the plants were grown in an inert artificial substrate (perlite). In the first the rhizosphere pH was modified through variation of N concentrations and the NH$_{4}$/NO$_{3}$-N ratio in the irrigation water. In the second the rhizosphere pH was modified solely by altering the NH$_{4}$/NO$_{3}$-N ratio while irrigation-N concentration was held at the level found to be optimal in the first experiment. Cultivation of rice flower, a new crop in Israel, is hampered by lack of knowledge on its Zn nutrition. Because availability of soil Zn largely depends on pH we investigated in the second experiment the effect of Zn foliar application. The growth of rice flower plants under low-N fertilization or low NH$_{4}$/NO$_{3}$-N ratio was poor and the plants exhibited growth disorders such as tipburn, severe chlorosis and necrosis. These growth disorders could not be ascribed to any direct effect of N nutrition therefore it was suggested that the indirect effect of the treatments, e.g., the rhizosphere pH dominates rice flower growth through its effect on nutrient availability. The only nutrient that was significantly correlated with pH and yield parameters in both experiments was Zn. All irrigation-nutrients concentrations were within the recommended range for hydroponically grown plants; however, the leaf-Mn concentration of plants grown in pH above 7.5 was in the toxic range while that of Zn was deficient. The high preferential uptake of Mn over Zn by rice flower plants and the question of whether high Mn uptake induced Zn deficiency remain open. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
