Impact of nitrogen application and crop stage on epiphytic microbial communities on silage maize leaf surfaces

Impact of nitrogen application and crop stage on epiphytic microbial communities on silage maize leaf surfaces

This study aimed to examine the impact of nitrogen (N) fertilization on phyllosphere microorganisms in silage maize (Zea mays) to enhance the production of high-quality silage. The effects of different N application rates (160, 240, and 320 kg ha−1) and maturity stages (flowering and dough stages) o...
