Edaphology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Edaphology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
is one of two main divisions of soil science, the other being pedology.[1][2] Edaphology is concerned with the influence of soils on living things, particularly plants. The term is also applied to the study of how soil influences man's use of land for plant growth[3] as well as man's overall use of the land.[4] General subfields within edaphology are agricultural soil science (known by the term agrology in some regions) and environmental soil science. (Pedology deals with pedogenesis, soil morphology, and soil classification.)

Horseradish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Horseradish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
The intact horseradish root has hardly any aroma. When cut or grated, however, enzymes from the damaged plant cells break down sinigrin (aglucosinolate) to produce allyl isothiocyanate (mustard oil), which irritates the sinuses and eyes. Once grated, if not used immediately or mixed in vinegar, the root darkens, loses its pungency, and becomes unpleasantly bitter when exposed to air and heat.
