The impact of foliar nickel fertilization on urease activity in pecan trees

The aim of the present work is to analyze the effect of different foliar products of nickel (Ni) onthe nutrient concentration, chlorophyll content, and enzymatic activity of urease as the possible bioindicator of the levels of Ni in the leaves of pecan [Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch]. The e...

The results demonstrated that the pecan trees treated with Ni increased in the concentration of this element and that the product Nickel Plus® T1 increased by 41.24% with respect to control.
