Title

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Marine produced the highest shoot dry matter at limiting and optimum nitrogen supplies.
- Observation Marine produced the highest class 1 curd quality at both nitrogen supplies.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen supply did not change horizontal or vertical root length density distribution.
- Association Root length density decreased exponentially with soil depth.
- Observation At Ruthe, varieties did not differ in root length density.
- Observation At Schermer, Marine had the highest root length density in all layers from 0 to 60 cm.
- Association Under limiting nitrogen at Schermer, deep root length density strongly negatively correlated with residual nitrogen.
- Mechanism The authors speculated that varietal nitrogen efficiency differences reflect internal nitrogen use efficiency more than uptake efficiency.
