In order to investigate the feasibility of using rice leaf critical nitrogen concentration as a nitrogen nutrition diagnosis index, a three-year positioning experiment with large-spike rice cultivar (Wuyoudao4) and multiple-spike rice cultivar (Songjing9) under five nitrogen levels (0, 60, 120, 180, and 240 kg·ha−1) was conducted. A critical nitrogen dilution curve and a nitrogen nutrition index (NNI) of rice leaf dry matter were constructed for Wuyoudao4 (Nc = 1.96LDM−0.56, R2 = 0.87, NNI was between 0.6–1.26, and Normalized Root Mean Square Error (n-RMSE) = 13.07%) and Songjing9 (Nc = 1.99LDM−0.44, R2 = 0.94, NNI was between 0.64–1.29, and n-RMSE = 15.89%). The relationship between dry matter and nitrogen concentration of rice leaves was a negative power function, and the model had good stability over the three years. The developed critical nitrogen concentration dilution curve, based on leaf dry matter, was able to diagnose nitrogen nutrition in rice efficiently. The model established in this study could be used to directly regulate and control the nitrogen nutrition of rice leaves.

In order to investigate the feasibility of using rice critical nitrogen concentration as a nitrogen nutrition diagnosis index, a two-year positioning field gradient experiment using four rice varieties and four nitrogen levels (0, 75, 150, 225 kg·ha–1 for early rice; 0, 90, 180, 270 kg·ha–1 for late rice) was conducted for early and late rice. The critical dilution curves (Nc%) of the double-cropped rice based on leaf dry matter (LDM) were constructed and verified using the field data. Two critical nitrogen dilution curves and nitrogen nutrition indexes (NNI) of rice LDM were constructed for early rice [Nc% = 2.66LDM−0.79, R2 = 0.88, NNI ranged between 0.29–1.74, and the average normalized root mean square error (n-RMSE = 19.35%)] and late rice [Nc% = 7.46LDM−1.42, R2 = 0.91, NNI was between 0.55–1.53, and the average (n-RMSE = 15.14%)]. The relationship between NNI and relative yield was a quadratic polynomial equation and suggested that the optimum nitrogen application rate for early rice was sightly smaller than 150 kg·ha–1, and that for late rice was about 180 kg·ha-1. The developed critical nitrogen concentration dilution curves, based on leaf dry matter, were able to diagnose nitrogen nutrition in the double-cropped rice region.

ABSTRACT Nitrogen is the most limiting nutrient for the development of sugarcane and particularly the use of more productive and demanding varieties, for which the doses of nitrogen fertilization necessary during the plant cane cycle may be underestimated and the critical levels of nitrogen in the leaf may be modified. The objective of this study was to determine the critical nitrogen dilution curve (CNDC) for leaves, evaluate the aboveground dry mass production (DM) and productivity of two varieties fertilized with N in the plant cane cycle. The study was conducted under field conditions, evaluating two sugarcane varieties RB92579 and RB867515, fertilized with seven doses of N (0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 200 kg ha-1). The varieties and doses were arranged in randomized blocks and analyzed in the 2 × 7 factorial scheme. It was found that the nitrogen concentration in the leaf decreased with four repetitions increase in DM yield and adjusted an exponential model, which enabled to estimate the critical levels of 13.03 and 12.46 g N kg-1 dry matter in the varieties RB92579 and RB867515, respectively. The plant cane cycle were observed to respond positively to nitrogen fertilization, with increase of 18.66% in tons of stalk per hectare (TSH) in response to the application addition of up to 129.45 kg N ha-1. The variety RB92579 showed the lowest dilution of the critical nitrogen concentration, the highest production of DM and higher stalk yield, and accordingly is considered to be the more efficient of the two varieties with respect to nitrogen fertilizer utilization.

We have studied the effect of nitrogen supply on growth as well as relation on adaptation to light interception of leek (Allium porrum L.,) hybrid Alita, genotype of known genetic background. During the vegetative and generative plant growth phases, besides genetic potential many factors affect their productivity. The aim was to investigate genome expression dependent on nitrogen nutrition and light interception. Nitrogen in correlation with light availability has important effect on the growth of plants and the formation of leaf area, what it is necessary for yield of dry matter. Investigation has been done in open field grown leek commercial hybrid Alita (Allium porrum L.,) to consider the way of its genotype response to correlation of light interception and nitrogen nutrition. Investigated traits are leek crop productivity, light interception and chemical analyses of plants. Leek crop productivity was determined through the dry matter production, leaf area development and light interception. Analyses of leek plants comprehended chemical determination and calculation of total nitrogen concentration, nitrogen critical concentration in dry matter, nitrogen demand and, nitrogen uptake in leek crop. Correlation among investigated parameters was assigned to comprehensive hypothetical model of growth and productivity of leek crop grown at open field.It was shown that for nitrogen uptake (Nu), nitrogen demand (ND) and total nitrogen concentration (Nt) parameters variants of mineral nutrition plays significant role (pNu=0.002; pND=0.045; pNt=0.011). Obtained results indicated that correlation of nitrogen and light interception could be used as criteria in plant breeding.

The nitrogen concentration in dry matter of the fifth leaf during growth of a greenhouse tomato crop was determined. Plants of hybrid Monte Carlo were grown in 4.5 L bags, using a commercial substrate, in a plant density of 3.3 plants m-2. A nutrient solution containing, in mmol L-1: KNO3, 4.0; K2SO4, 0.9; Ca(NO3)2, 3.75; KH2PO4, 1.5; MgSO4, 1.0; iron chelate 19. 10³, was used as reference. Microelements were added by a commercial mixture. The T3 treatment was equal to the reference nutrient solution, whereas in treatments T1, T2, T4 and T5 quantities of all nutrients from T3 were multiplied by 0.25, 0.50, 1.25 and 1.50, respectively. In each treatment, the volume of 1 L of nutrient solution was supplied to each plant once a week by fertigation. Periodically destructive measurements were made from anthesis to ripening of the first truss, to determine dry matter and N concentration in shoot and in fifth leaf tissues, counted from the apex to the bottom of the plant. Five dilution curves were fitted from data of N concentration in the fifth leaf and shoot dry matter accumulation during growth of plants. A general relationship was adjusted between actual N concentration in shoot (Nt) and in the fifth leaf (Nf): Nt = 1.287 Nf (R² = 0.80). This relationship could be used to estimate the N status of plants by means of a nitrogen nutrition index (NNI), from analysis of the fifth leaf sap.

A glasshouse experiment was conducted to study the effect of temporary flooding on the growth and development of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. cv. Deltapine 61) and the recovery of nitrogen applied as urea fertiliser in two black earths differing in organic matter content, with three water treatments. Two floodings were applied, at 15 days after planting and at 45 days.Plant dry weight and growth characteristics of the cotton plant such as height, number of leaves, leaf area and fruiting points were greatly reduced by the flooding treatments. The cotton plants were more affected by the first than the second flooding. A greater depression in the various growth characteristics was found in the high organic matter soil than the low organic matter soil. The soils behaved differently in their interaction with the water treatments. With the control water treatment, cotton grown on the high organic matter soil produced more dry matter and assimilated more nitrogen but had a lower nitrogen concentration and apparent recovery of urea nitrogen than did cotton grown on the low organic matter soil. For the flooding treatments the low organic matter soil produced more dry matter and assimilated more nitrogen, but had a lower nitrogen concentration and a higher apparent recovery of urea nitrogen than did cotton grown on the high organic matter soil.The lower apparent recovery of urea nitrogen in the high organic matter soil during temporary flooding appears due mainly to higher loss of nitrogen by denitrification, although other mechanisms may be significant. The wider implications of the results in terms of field practice with irrigated cotton are discussed.
