Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Nitrate boosts significantly increased shoot nitrate concentration in C>B>A order.
- Association Higher shoot nitrate concentration correlated with increased plant biomass.
- Association Higher shoot nitrate concentration correlated with reduced root length.
- Association Higher shoot nitrate concentration correlated with fewer root tips.
- Association Root exudation increased as shoot nitrate concentration decreased.
- Observation Root tip regions exuded more carbon than the whole root.
- Intervention effect Specific exudation rates were unaffected by treatments.
- Association Total root exudation correlated closely with total root length.
- Association Greater exudation per root biomass at lower nitrate supply was associated with altered root morphology.
