11. Flux rates are most easily measured for nutrient uptake at the edge of the network. 12. Root symptoms include deformation ( galls ) and injury that prevent proper water and nutrient uptake . 13. Biochar is shown to have increased soil cation exchange capacity leading to improved plant nutrient uptake . 14. This alters the availability of essential nutrients and hinders the nutrient uptake ability of native plants. 15. Polysorbate 80 is a surfactant which assists in nutrient uptake by " Lactobacilli ". 16. Injecting effluent directly into the ground is one method employed by manure applicators to improve nutrient uptake . 17. The authors concluded that RAB7 functions as a proapoptotic protein by limiting cell-autonomous nutrient uptake . 18. Mycorrhizal fungi inhabit plant roots and increase nutrient uptake for the plant in exchange for food resources. 19. To maximize protein and nutrient uptake they consume every part of their prey, including the scales and bones. 20. Because nutrient uptake is an active metabolic process, conditions that inhibit root metabolism may also inhibit nutrient uptake.
