Table 2 Influence of CETM and P-fertilization practices on lysine (g per kg dry matter), tryptophan content (µg g−1) and grain-P uptake (kg ha−1) of maize under MWCS.

From: Double zero tillage and foliar phosphorus fertilization coupled with microbial inoculants enhance maize productivity and quality in a maize–wheat rotation

Treatment
