Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Atrazine or simazine inhibited nitrification by less than 3% in incubated Tifton loamy sand.
- Intervention effect Nitrapyrin or terrazole, alone or with either herbicide, inhibited nitrification by more than 10%.
- Observation Similar nitrification trends occurred in greenhouse soil with and without corn plants.
- Intervention effect These combinations produced substantial accumulation of Kjeldahl N and NO3 ‐ in corn tissue.
- Intervention effect The combinations showed a nonsignificant trend toward increased corn ear yields in two-year field studies.
- Observation When included, atrazine or simazine masked the effects of nitrapyrin or terrazole on nitrification, plant growth and total N contents.
