Effects of Nitrogen Fertilization on Dark-Respiration and Growth Efficiency of Field-Grown Rice Plants
The growth efficiency (GE), specific dark-respiration rate (Rs) and crop growth rate (CGR) of rice plants grown in the field with applications of nitrogen fertilizer at 0, 11 and 17 g per m2 were examined every two weeks in 1996 and 1997.
