Abstract
Poor seed germination and early seedling growth caused by ammonia toxicity following urea application are major constraints for wheat production. This study aims to determine ammonia volatilization caused by urea and its damage to seed germination, early seedling growth, and its associated physiological mechanism. Two petri dish experiments were conducted under four nitrogen (N) application rates (0, 0.58, 1.16 and 1.75 mg N g−1 soil) for six...
