| ABSTRACT Prior research on sugarcane showed increment of productivity following molybdenum (Mo) fertilization and some indication of the potential role either on nitrate reductase activity (NRA). However, this increment can depend on sugarcane variety and nitrogen (N) fertilization. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Mo fertilization on Mo uptake, on NRA, nitrate (NO3--N), and ammonium (NH4+-N) contents in leaves and roots of sugarcane, and the accumulation of N and biomass across two sugarcane varieties (RB 867515 and RB 92579). The varieties were subjected to two rates of N fertilization (without N fertilization and 60 kg ha-1 of N) and two rates of Mo fertilization (without Mo fertilization and 200 g ha-1 of Mo). At 70, 100, 130, 200, and 365... |
