Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Nitrate concentration below 0.2 mM decreased the rate of dry matter production of Lolium perenne.
- Intervention effect Between 0.2 and 1.5 mM nitrate altered the chemical composition of Lolium perenne.
- Intervention effect Between 0.2 and 1.5 mM nitrate did not affect dry matter production of Lolium perenne.
- Association Crude-fibre content decreased as nitrate concentration rose.
- Association The organic-N fraction increased with increasing nitrate concentration in the range above 0.2 mM and up to 1.5 mM.
- Observation Above 1.5 mM nitrate, the effect was virtually confined to plant nitrate concentration.
- Association Above 1.5 mM nitrate, plant nitrate content and soluble carbohydrate content were always definitely related.
- Association The optimum temperature for dry matter production of Lolium perenne increased with increasing light intensity.
