- Intervention effect Grain yield rose from 80 to 120 kg N ha-1.
- Intervention effect Grain yield decreased at 160 kg N ha-1.
- Intervention effect Split 160 kg N ha-1 application raised grain protein content.
- Intervention effect Split 160 kg N ha-1 application raised grain Zn concentration.
- Intervention effect Soil plus foliar Zn and Fe increased grain Zn by 46% compared with soil application.
- Intervention effect Soil plus foliar Zn and Fe increased grain Fe by 35% compared with soil application.
- Observation Zn and Fe were co-localized in germ, crease and aleurone.
- Recommendation Authors recommend split N at 160 kg ha-1 with soil and foliar Zn and Fe to enhance protein and mineral concentrations.
