Phosphorous Uptake and Concentration of Timothy Genotypes under Varying N Applications
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Improving P uptake in timothy ( Phleum pratense L.) would reduce excess soil phosphate while producing forage with greater P nutritional value. A strong relationship exists between N and P concentration in plants, and we hypothesized that genotypes characterized for contrasting N concentration or uptake may also exhibit contrasting P concentration and uptake. Two timothy populations derived from divergent selection for high and low forage N concentration were studied in Experiment 1. These two populations were also studied in Experiment 2, along with seven half‐sib families identified in a field study as having contrasting dry matter (DM) yield and N concentration. In both experiments, a reference population, ‘Champ’, was included and plants were grown in a growth room with varying N rates. Independent of applied N, the genotypes differed for P concentration, P uptake, and P to N ratio (P/N), in forage and total biomass, as well as for leaf P concentration, leaf weight ratio (LWR), root weight ratio (RWR) and efficiency of P uptake for each unit of root biomass (PUPE root ). Averaged across N rates in Experiment 2, forage P concentration among genotypes ranged from 4.1 to 5.1 g P kg −1 DM, while forage P uptake ranged from 10.0 to 14.6 mg P per plant. Variations in P uptake and concentration were related to genotypic differences in DM yield, leaf P concentration, LWR, and RWR. Phosphorus concentration and uptake decreased under N stress. We conclude that variation exists among timothy genotypes for P concentration and uptake.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
