It was found that all the availability indexes were best correlated with nitrogen uptake of rice followed by N% in rice plants at 55 days after seeding. Dry-matter yield of rice was also significantly correlated with the available nitrogen status but the correlation coefficients were the lowest. It is concluded that for unfertilized soils, nitrogen uptake provides a better criterion for evaluating the performance of nitrogen availability indexes for wetland rice. date: 1983 date_type: published publication: Plant and Soil volume: 74 number: 2 publisher: Kluwer pagerange: 223-228 refereed: TRUE issn: 0032-079X official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/BF02143612 related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Correlations+between+indexes+of+soil+nitrogen+availability+and+nitrogen+percent+in+plant%2C+nitrogen+uptake%2C+and+dry-matter+yield+of+rice+grown+in+the+greenhouse&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&a related_url_type: author citation: Sahrawat, K L (1983) Correlations between indexes of soil nitrogen availability and nitrogen percent in plant, nitrogen uptake, and dry-matter yield of rice grown in the greenhouse.
