The effects of nitrogen and water stresses on the nitrogen-to-protein conversion factor of winter wheat

An accurate estimation of grain protein concentration (GPC) based on the nitrogen-to-protein conversion factor (Fp) and grain nitrogen concentration is crucial for scientific research and human nutrition. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of nitrogen and water stresses on Fp. Field experiments consisting of 16 treatments that included the coupled stresses of nitrogen and water were conducted over 2 wheat growing seasons from 2014...
