Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Fertilizer-induced changes in aboveground N status of container-grown hackberry trees were significant only at the 4.27 g N tree-1 treatment.
- Intervention effect The amount of fertilizer N recovered in aboveground tissues of hackberry trees increased with the rate of fertilizer application.
- Intervention effect The percentage of fertilizer N recovered in aboveground tissues did not differ between the two application rates.
- Observation At Arlington, Wisconsin, 15%-25% of the fertilizer was recovered in aboveground tissues.
- Observation At Lisle, Illinois, 5%-9% of the fertilizer was recovered in aboveground tissues.
- Mechanism Frost damage to the foliage at Lisle may have caused location differences in aboveground biomass that affected fertilizer N uptake and recovery.
- Mechanism Fertilizer N accumulated in nontarget sinks and/or was lost from the site of application at both application rates.
