Switchgrass Leaf Tissue Chemical Analyses — GLBRC Marginal Land Experiment
Data in the KBS GLBRC core database may not be published without written permission of the lead investigator or project director Full terms of use
Comprehensive chemical analyses of switchgrass leaf tissue collected from plants in the fertilized split plots (G5) of the GLBRC Marginal Land Experiment (MLE) and the fertilized main plot (G5) of the Biofuel Cropping Systems Experiment (BCSE).
This datatable is part of the GLBRC Plant Chemical Analyses dataset.
This dataset contains the total carbon and nitrogen content of plant material of the GLBRC Biofuel Cropping System Experiment (BCSE) at peak biomass and at harvest, and the complete chemical analysis of leaf tissue of selected species to occasionally assess their nutrient status.
