Shifting timing of intensive nitrogen topdressing later to the stem-elongation phase reduced lower internodes length and lodging risk of wheat

Intensive nitrogen (N) application during stem elongation is effective in increasing potential yield but it also increases the risk of lodging. Unfortunately, the increased lodging more than offsets any associated gains from the increase in potential yield. We test the hypothesis that lodging is not...
