Effect of nitrogen and sulphur fertilization on the quality of barley protein

Efficiency of Fertilization and Utilization of Nitrogen and Sulphur by Spring Wheat

“…The experiment was conducted on cambisols (WRB 2014) consisting of light silty sand (sand 68%, silt 31%, clay 1%). The soil was slightly acidic (pH = 5.6), with high available P content (mean 52.1 mg kg -1 ), medium content of available K (mean 84.5 mg kg -1 ), and available Mg (mean 34.5 mg kg -1 ), and low content of available S-SO 4 (mean 12.4 mg kg -1 ). The subject of the experiment was the Tybalt variety of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) fertilized with different doses of N (0, 40, 80, and 120 kg N ha -1 ) and S (0 and 50 kg S ha -1 ).…”

“…at many levels, as the uptake and assimilation of NO 3 and SO 4 2-have much in common, and there are many common products of N and S metabolism [5]. For assimilation of sulphate to occur, plants must contain adequate levels of this precursor, and as an amino acid its concentration is dependent on N nutrition [6].…”

Plant, grain, and soil response of irrigated malt barley as affected by cultivar, phosphorus, and sulfur applications on an alkaline soil

“…Previous research has noted increased grain yield and quality for barley after application of S in various forms on S-limited soils (Zhao et al 1999(Zhao et al , 2006Jarvan et al 2008;Dostalova et al 2015). Thus, yield and quality of malt barley are compromised in areas where S-fertilizers are not applied in low S-containing soils (Messick, Fan, and Brey 2005;Barczak and Majcherczak 2009).…”

“…Information on the effects of P, S, or the combinations of the two fertilizer sources on barley grain yield and quality are limited (Alam, Haider, and Paul 2007;Shafi et al 2011;Dostalova et al 2015). Improvement in P-fertilizer application for two-row malt barley cultivars should be considered as a desirable option for sustainable barley production in the western Unites States.…”

Variation in the chemical composition and physical characteristics of grain from winter barley varieties

“…Precipitations, temperature and fertilization are the most important environmental factors that contribute to variations in the chemical and physical characteristics of cereal grains (Metayer et al, 1993;Jorgensen et al, 1999;Dostálová et al, 2015;Rodehutscord et al, 2016). Therefore, the characterisation of variations in the nutritional value of barley grains in a given geographic location may help to define appropriate breeding objectives for improving the feeding value of barley grains for livestock nutrition.…”
