Effect of sodium nitrate applied at different periods of the growing season on the yield, composition, and quality of wheat
1945
Davidson, J. | Buchanan, R.
Applications of sodium nitrate to wheat were made at a number of periods during the growing season under conditions under which no definite response with respect to yield was obtained. The results show that (a) the protein content increased gradually the nearer the applications were made to the time of heading and declined again on the plots on which the applications were made after this stage of growth, (b) that the sulfur content followed in a general way the same course as the protein content; and (c) that there was no correlation between the protein content and the weight per bushel and weight per 1,000 kernels.
