According to average figures of two years, under Menemen ecological conditions, increasing rates nitrogen applications linearly decreased the number of fertile spikelets (Y= -1.05+1.28X). It is agreed that establishmet of low flower sterility at high nitrogen levels may become an important criteria in the selection of nitrogen responsive high yiealding varieties.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessArticle212109112Q2
