Description
Xuefang Sun and co-authors test whether fertilizer shields wheat from cold in a 2025 study. Cold snaps are hitting China's wheat regions more often, stunting young plants and cutting yields. Nitrogen feeds growth, but its role inside the plant's tillering nodes, the hubs where new shoots form, was unclear under cold stress.
A fourteen-year field experiment compared four nitrogen rates, from none to heavy, during low-temperature events. Moderate nitrogen raised dry weight, shoot counts, and yield versus no fertilizer. Gene activity profiles showed the nutrient tuned both nitrogen processing and hormone signals in the nodes. The work gives farmers a rate target that buys cold resilience without waste.
