Abstract:Purpose: Soybean is the most important grain crop in Brazil with a mean N accumulation of over 250 kg N ha-1, principally from biological N2 fixation. The residual N benefit depends heavily on the quantity of the belowground N at harvest, much which cannot be directly recovered in roots. The purpose of this study was to investigate different aspects of the 15N leaf-labelling technique to quantify non-recoverable root N (NRRN) derived from senescent roots and nodules (rhizodeposits). Methods: Soybean plants wer… Show more
