- Intervention effect Over-developed seedlings did not affect final yield in four lettuce cultivars.
- Intervention effect Small transplants delayed lettuce maturity.
- Association Matilda had a slightly higher linear-phase growth rate than Mariska.
- Association Matilda yielded better than Mariska.
- Association Pronto had a slightly higher linear-phase growth rate than Mariska.
- Association Pronto yielded better than Mariska.
- Association Mariska had a higher maximal exponential growth rate than the other compared cultivars.
- Association Nadine had the highest physiological nitrogen-use efficiency among four cultivars.
- Association Nadine had the most stable yield across seasons and locations.
- Mechanism A large deep-rooted system conferred robustness in lettuce.
- Association Additional root proliferation generally correlated with improved nitrate capture.
- Association Cultivars with larger roots may perform better in harsh conditions.
- Mechanism Increased nitrogen use efficiency can support stable yields across conditions.
