Gross nitrogen mineralization and immobilization in temperate maize-soybean intercrops
(Springer, 2015-06)Background and aims: Reliance on nitrogen (N) fertilizers to maintain crop productivity requires a thorough understanding of the transformation of this nutrient within the soil-plant system. Organic matter input from a ... -
Indigenous mycorrhizal fungi from Argentina increase Zn nutrition of maize modulated by Zn fertilization
(Soil Science Society of Pakistan, 2014-06)The effect of nitrogen (N), phosphorous (P), sulfur (S) and zinc (Zn) fertilization on arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization (AMC), nutrition and growth of maize under contrasting tillage management was assessed in a field ... -
Influence of corn silage supplementation before alfalfa grazing on ruminal environment in relation to the occurrence of frothy bloat in cattle
(Elsevier, 2007-07)Changes in the ruminal environment of cattle supplemented with corn silage (CS) before alfalfa grazing, in relation to the occurrence of frothy bloat, were evaluated. Six ruminally fistulated heifers were used in a crossover ... -
Kernel number response to plant density in tropical, temperate, and tropical × temperate maize hybrids
(Crop Science Society of America, 2020-02-07)Kernel set response to plant density was examined in terms of physiological processes underlying kernel set in temperate (Te), tropical (Tr), and temperate × tropical (TeTr) maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids. Four field experiments ... -
Maize grain yield components and source-sink relationship as affected by the delay in sowing date
(Elsevier, 2016-11)Delaying maize (Zea mays L.) sowing date can diminish grain yields through reductions in the number, size and activity of growing grains (sink strength) and/or reductions in the assimilate supply (source capacity) to grains ... -
Maize leaf rolling and its response to drying soil and evaporative demand
(Wiley, 2023-05-31)Leaf rolling is an adaptive mechanism associated with water deficiencies; however, the physiological processes and environmental factors contributing to leaf rolling are not fully understood. The objective of this study ... -
Maize transpiration efficiency increases with N supply or higher plant densities
(Elsevier, 2021-03-08)Most of the studies addressing the influence of management practices on seasonal crop water use efficiency (i.e., the ratio between shoot biomass and evapotranspiration in a seasonal scale, WUE(B, ET, s)) have focused on ... -
Maize–soybean intensification alternatives for the Pampas
(2014-06)Cultivating multiple crops as a land use alternative could increase system productivity and sustainability, providing options to soybean monoculture for the Argentinean Pampas. This study evaluates the performance of ... -
Métodos de colocación de fósforo en trigo y maíz bajo siembra directa en el sudeste bonaerense
(Gerencia de Comunicación e Imagen Institucional, DNA SICC, INTA, 2018-12)La siembra directa (SD) produce cambios físicos, químicos y biológicos en el suelo que pueden afectar la disponibilidad de P para los cultivos. El uso eficiente de fertilizantes debe combinar factores como dosis, momento, ... -
Mid-Season High-Resolution Satellite Imagery for Forecasting Site-Specific Corn Yield
(MDPI, 2016-10)A timely and accurate crop yield forecast is crucial to make better decisions on crop management, marketing, and storage by assessing ahead and implementing based on expected crop performance. The objective of this study ... -
Monitoring Corn Nitrogen Concentration from Radar (C-SAR), Optical, and Sensor Satellite Data Fusion
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-02)Corn (Zea mays L.) nitrogen (N) management requires monitoring plant N concentration (Nc) with remote sensing tools to improve N use, increasing both profitability and sustainability. This work aims to predict the corn Nc ... -
Monitoring corn nitrogen nutrition index from optical and synthetic aperture radar satellite data and soil available nitrogen
(Springer, 2023-08)Nitrogen (N) nutrition index (NNI) is a reliable indicator of plant N status for field crops, but its determination is both labor- and cost-intensive. The utilization of remote sensing approaches for monitoring N, mainly ... -
Nitrogen diagnosis for double-cropped maize
(Elsevier, 2022-10)Double cropping has been proposed as a strategy to promote ecological intensification. In temperate regions, maize (Zea mays L.) could be a viable option for double cropping. However, there is a lack of information regarding ... -
Nitrogen Recovery Efficiency from Urea Treated with NSN Co-Polymer Applied to No-Till Corn
(MDPI, 2018-08-19)Nitrogen (N) rate increases used by many farmers produce a reduced or null effect on N recovery efficiency (RE) by crops. Therefore, management practices to reduce N losses and increase RE are necessary. Co-polymer maleic ... -
Nitrous oxide emissions in maize on mollisols in the Pampas of Argentina
(Elsevier, 2021-01-14)The objectives of this study were i) to measure the soil N2O fluxes in a cropping system currently adopted by farmers of the region (FP), and in an ecologically intensified cropping system (EI) over two consecutive maize ... -
