Other claims from this paper (15)
- Association Soy bean growth varied directly with day length and clipping severity.
- Association Soy bean nodule development varied directly with day length and clipping severity.
- Association Nodule development correlated with plant carbohydrate percentage, especially acid-hydrolyzable material.
- Association The nodule and carbohydrate correlation was stronger for tops than roots.
- Association No correlation was noted between carbohydrate-nitrogen relationship and growth or nodule development.
- Association Roots relative to tops developed better under shorter than longer light exposures.
- Association Growth correlated more closely with absolute than percentage amounts of chemical constituents.
- Association Nodule development correlated more closely with absolute than percentage amounts of chemical constituents.
- Association Soy bean greenness increased with duration of light exposure.
- Observation Short-exposure plants showed prominent etiolation.
- Observation Spring day-length variation and clipping produced similar plant types.
- Observation Autumn long-day plants were vegetative and non-fruitful with stronger tops and twining.
- Observation Autumn short-day plants were fruitful and non-twining with poorer tops relative to roots.
- Association Autumn nodule development varied directly with light exposure duration as in spring.
- Observation The carbohydrate-nitrogen relationship did not explain autumn plant-type differences.
