Book Description
Investigates the difference in the nitrogen (N) status between stay-green and senescent sorghum hybrids by assessing the genotypic variability for chlorophyll content and leaf senescence under three rates of N supply to determine the minimum supply required for the expression of the stay-green phenotype in the stay-green hybrid. Compares nitrogen use, uptake, and utilization efficiencies and examines grain yield and differences in dry matter and plant nitrogen content in plant parts at harvest.
