Abstract: | The effects of different applied NO3 concentrations onextension growth and final length and area of leaves 14of five cereals and six pasture grasses of temperate originwere examined. Increased applied NO3 in the range 0.150mol m3; caused decreased duration of growth but increasedgrowth rate and final length of leaves 24 of the cerealsAvena saliva, Hordeum vulgare, Secale cereale x Triticosecaleand Triticum aestivum. For all cereals, increased NO3resulted in increased area of leaves 1-4. Pasture grasses weresupplied either 0.5 or 50 mol m3; NO3. Increasedapplied NO3 (0.550 mol m3) resulted indecreased duration of growth and increased growth rate and finalarea of leaves 14 of Bromus willdenowii leaves 24of Festuca arundinaceae and leaves 3 and 4 of Lolium multiflorum.In addition, length of leaves 3 and 4 of B. willdenowii increasedwith increased NO3. Increased NO3 resulted in increased areaof leaves 24 of Daciylis glomerata and Lolium perenneand leaves 3 and 4 of Phalaris aquatica but had no effect onextension growth of all three species.
