Phytoremediation of calcareous saline-sodic soils with mesquite (Prosopis glandulosa)

We evaluated phytoremediation potential of a calcareous saline-sodic soil with Prosopis glandulosa relying on either N2 fixation (NFIX) or inorganic N (IN) and gypsum. Straw and root dry matter of NFIX were 60% and 67% higher than that of IN, respectively. While both plants relying on IN or NFIX ret...
