High levels of soil nitrogen (N) can interfere with N2 fixation of lentil (Lens culinaris) and have variable effects on growth, yield and maturity of this indeterminate crop in Saskatchewan. In a series of field and greenhouse experiments during 2006 to 2008, response of the above-ground biomass (DW...
