Fig. 1. Linear-plateau fit of corn grain yield response to N applied at growth stage V7 (NV7) for different rates of N applied at planting (NPL) at the different experimental sites (Table 2) during 2002 and 2003. Each point is the mean of four replicates. Absence of a line indicates that optimum N rate was derived using a series of linear contrasts. PBRS, Peanut Belt Research Station, Lewiston-Woodville, NC; TRS, Tidewater Research Station, Plymouth, NC; IR, irrigated; NI, nonirrigated.

Fig. 3. Models showing the relationships of optimum N rate at growth stage V7 (NV7) with (a) Green Difference Vegetation Index (GDVI) and (b) normalized near infrared (Norm NIR), both excluding the treatments that had an optimum NV7 rate of 0 kg ha–1. ** indicates significance at the 0.01 probability level.
