ISHS Acta Horticulturae 507: III International Workshop on Models for Plant Growth and Control of the Shoot and Root Environments in Greenhouses

A DISCUSSION OF NUTRIENT UPTAKE EQUATIONS IN HYDROPONIC CULTURE AND THEIR USE IN COMPUTER SIMULATION

Authors:   J. Mathieu, K. Kurata, E. Goto, L. Albright
Keywords:   Michaelis-Menten kinetics, Relative addition rate, Plant nutrient demand, Model
Abstract:
In this paper, existing nutrient uptake equations are evaluated for use in computer simulation to predict nutrient uptake in a hydroponic system. Most mechanistic nutrient uptake equations are based on either Michaelis-Menten kinetics, relative addition rate of nutrients, or plant nutrient demand.
