  1. (a)∆N fertilization corresponds to the difference between the N fertilization under the high (N2) and low (N1) conditions
  2. (b)The nitrogen nutrition index measured at the bolting stage (BBCH 50) under low (N1, left) or high (N2, right) N nutrition conditions. The standard errors are indicated in brackets
  3. '-': not available
