Other claims from this paper (12)
- Association Marine gave the highest total dry-matter yield at both limiting and optimum N supply.
- Association Marine gave the highest percentage of class 1 curds at both limiting and optimum N supply.
- Association Marine was the least sensitive cauliflower variety to N shortage in quality.
- Association Linford could be considered nitrogen inefficient in quality.
- Observation Lindurian generally performed inconsistently.
- Mechanism The reduction in cauliflower quality under N shortage was due to an increase in loose curds.
- Intervention effect N shortage increased buttoning defects in cauliflower curds, in part.
- Observation Marine produced no buttoned curds.
- Intervention effect Bracting was not affected by N supply in cauliflower.
- Observation Bracting appeared only in Ruthe 1994 with Lindurian and Linford.
- Observation Marine could be regarded as nitrogen efficient.
- Mechanism The improved efficiency of Marine might have been achieved through a higher N uptake capacity of the root system and/or a greater utilization of nitrogen by the plant.
