1. Do Soil Nitrogen Tests Relate to Nitrogen Mineralization in First-year Corn Following Alfalfa?Corn (Zea mays L.) is the most frequent first-year crop grown following alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) in the Upper Midwest. In the majority of cases, first-year corn does not respond to fertilizer N, but sometimes large amounts are needed to optimize yield. The pre-sidedress and Illinois soil N tests (PSNT and ISNT, respectively) are early-season tests used to predict corn yield response to fertilizer N. These tests measure specific fractions of soil N and define a critical concentration to separate... |
2. Induced Manganese Deficiency in GM SoybeansGlyphosate resistance in soybean and corn reduced manganese uptake and physiological efficiency. Applicatior~ of glyphosate immobilized manganese applied before, concurrent with, or within 6-8 days after the glyphosatc event. Inorganic sources of manganese (Cl, CO,, SO,) tank-mixed with gly-phosate were antagonistic and reduced herbicidal efficacy: ho~vever, antagonism was significantly influenced by glypllosate fonnulation. Glyphosate root exudates and plant deconlposition products can alter the... |
3. A Minnesota-Wide Assessment of Critical Pre-Plant and in-Season Soil Nitrate for Adjusting Nitrogen Rate GuidelinesThe pre-plant (PPNT) and pre-sidedress (PSNT) soil nitrate tests are often used as indicators of soil nitrogen (N) availability in Minnesota. The assessment of available soil nitrogen (N) provides corn (Zea mays L.) growers with key information on N credits to adjust their N fertilizer rates. However, current N management recommendations in Minnesota were based on research conducted 40-yr ago and did not specify differences between environments and management. Through a comprehensive...
