High Maize Density Alleviates the Inhibitory Effect of Soil Nitrogen on Intercropped Pea

Nitrogen (N) fixation is essential in the development of sustainable agriculture, but nodulation of legumes is usually inhibited by N fertilization. In this study, we evaluated the increased density of intercropped maize (<i>Zea mays</i> L.) as a means to alleviate the inhibitory effect...
