Other claims from this paper (17)
- Observation Pearl millet hybrids differed in fresh weight, shoot and root dry matter in the greenhouse study.
- Observation Pearl millet hybrids differed in total DM and N efficiency in the greenhouse study.
- Association Pearl millet hybrid root and total DM correlated with those of their female parent.
- Association Pearl millet hybrid shoot/root ratios for DM and N and total root N correlated with those of their female parent.
- Association Temperature influenced pearl millet plant growth, DM production, N and DM partitioning and shoot N fractions.
- Association N level influenced pearl millet plant growth, DM production, N and DM partitioning and shoot N fractions.
- Association Genotype influenced pearl millet plant growth, DM production, N and DM partitioning and shoot N fractions.
- Intervention effect Pearl millet plants developed faster at 30 and 35 C.
- Intervention effect Pearl millet total DM was greatest at 25 C.
- Intervention effect Under high N, pearl millet plants partitioned more N and DM to the shoots.
- Intervention effect At 30 and 35 C, pearl millet plants partitioned more N and DM to the shoots.
- Association Temperature influenced the N concentration and percent of total shoot N in each fraction of pearl millet.
- Association N level influenced the N concentration and percent of total shoot N in each fraction of pearl millet.
- Association Pearl millet hybrids with the highest DM and N use efficiency had the lowest N concentration and percent total shoot N in the soluble nonprotein fraction.
- Intervention effect Pearl millet plants grown at 20 C had slower N uptake and incorporation into nonsoluble and soluble protein N than plants at all other temperatures.
- Intervention effect Addition of labeled N increased nonsoluble and soluble nonprotein N in pearl millet greatly by 2 days.
- Intervention effect Soluble protein of pearl millet showed little increase after addition of labeled N until 4 days.
