Phenotyping for Nitrogen Use Efficiency: Rice Genotypes Differ in N-Responsive Germination, Oxygen Consumption, Seed Urease Activities, Root Growth, Crop Duration, and Yield at Low N

Phenotyping for Nitrogen Use Efficiency: Rice Genotypes Differ in N-Responsive Germination, Oxygen Consumption, Seed Urease Activities, Root Growth, Crop Duration, and Yield at Low N

The biological improvement of fertilizer nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is hampered by the poor characterization of the phenotype and genotype for crop N response and NUE. In an attempt to identify phenotypic traits for N-response and NUE in the earliest stages of plant growth, we analyzed the N-resp...
