Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Sulfur deprivation increased root length at Z39 by 14%.
- Intervention effect Sulfur deprivation increased root tips at Z39 by 16%.
- Intervention effect At Z51 sulfur deprivation reduced root area by 31%.
- Intervention effect At Z51 sulfur deprivation reduced root mass by 42%.
- Intervention effect Sulfur supply raised sulfur uptake per unit root mass, area and length at Z39 and Z51.
- Intervention effect Sulfur supply raised nitrogen uptake per root unit at Z39.
- Intervention effect At Z51 nitrogen uptake per root unit followed the opposite pattern.
- Mechanism The authors infer shoot growth primarily controls nitrogen uptake.
