Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer treatments produced a wide range of specific leaf nitrogen and carbon exchange rates.
- Association Specific leaf nitrogen was strongly positively associated with leaf carbon exchange rate.
- Observation Specific leaf nitrogen and carbon exchange rate varied little through much of the field growing season.
- Observation Radiation use efficiency remained constant at 1.00 g MJ-1 through the growing season.
- Mechanism Nonuniform canopy leaf nitrogen distribution may enhance peanut radiation use efficiency.
