In highly weathered tropical soils the diffusive flux is the main transport mechanism of Zn, Cu, Fe, and Mn to the root surface of plants. Management practices such as liming and the presence of plant residues can alter the diffusive flux of these cationic micronutrients. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the diffusive flux in anionic and cationic forms and bioavaiability of cationic micronutrients Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn in Oxisols with distinct textures as influenced by […]
