Ecosystem C and N dynamics affected by a modified spring barley trait with increased nitrogen use - a simulation case study

Ecosystem C and N dynamics affected by a modified spring barley trait with increased nitrogen use - a simulation case study

To what extent might a crop with increased plant N uptake efficiency and/or N demand increase plant biomass and soil carbon storage, decrease N leaching, and reduce the need for N fertilisation? This was assessed for a fertilised sandy loam site in central Sweden cultivated with spring barley for a...
