Nitrogen fertilization impact on agronomic traits of maize hybrids released at different decades Impacto da fertilização nitrogenada sobre características agronômicas de híbridos de milho lançados em diferentes décadas

Genetic selection of maize hybrids is often conducted using high N rates during the breeding cycle. This procedure may either lead to the release of genotypes that present nitrogen luxury consumption or require a stronger N input to accomplish their yield potential. This work was carried out to eval...
