Other claims from this paper (4)
- Association Spikelets per aboveground dry weight correlated linearly with nitrogen concentration.
- Association Spikelet dry weight ratio rose with nitrogen at low concentrations, then increased more slowly at 2%.
- Association Total husk volume relative to plant dry weight increased with nitrogen at low concentrations but plateaued at 2%.
- Mechanism The authors suggest greater dry matter production is needed for nitrogen application to raise total husk volume.
