Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Nitrogen application had no effect on plant-crop biomass in the field.
- Association First-ratoon biomass was significantly affected by nitrogen supply.
- Association No significant nitrogen-by-genotype interaction was observed for first-ratoon biomass.
- Association Glasshouse genotypes differed in nitrogen allocation to stalk and leaves.
- Association Sugarcane genotypes differed in leaf turnover.
- Mechanism Stalk nitrogen storage could be useful if nitrogen is later remobilised to sink tissues.
- Mechanism Inefficient nitrogen remobilisation from senescent leaves could reduce nitrogen-use efficiency.
- Method / resource Photosynthetic nitrogen-use efficiency was not useful for instantaneous genotype performance at low or intermediate nitrogen supply.
- Recommendation The authors identify multiple traits as prospects for breeding nitrogen-efficient sugarcane.
- Recommendation The authors propose targeted nitrogen supply to reduce application and losses while maintaining sugarcane yields.
