Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect At eight weeks in rhizoboxes, maize root length density was higher in the NH4+-depot zone than in homogenously NO3- fertilized controls.
- Intervention effect The maize NH4+-depot zone had lower rhizosphere pH than the corresponding control zone.
- Intervention effect The maize NH4+-depot zone had a higher Pseudomonas sp. colonization rate than controls.
- Intervention effect Maize shoot nitrogen was higher with an NH4+-depot than with homogeneous NO3- fertilizer.
- Intervention effect Maize shoot phosphorus was higher with an NH4+-depot than with homogeneous NO3- fertilizer.
- Intervention effect Maize shoot weight did not differ between the stated fertilizer treatments.
- Intervention effect PGPM inoculation showed no effect on maize shoot growth.
- Intervention effect In field experiments, maize root length density was higher on the NH4+-depot side of rows than the opposite side, regardless of PGPM.
- Intervention effect In 2014, Pseudomonas sp. PRORADIX DSMZ13134 inoculation doubled maize root length density in the NH4+-depot zone.
- Intervention effect The inoculation effect on maize root length density was not reproduced in 2015.
- Intervention effect Maize silage yield in 2015 was unaffected by subsoil NH4+-depot placement or PGPM inoculation.
