Relationship of soil total N at sowing, anthesis and crop harvest of field remains under wheat for grain yield (kg ha-1) with N split application (NS) for intercropped with other species.

Wet gluten content (%) as affected by Nitrogen split application (NS) i.e. NS1: 50% N at seed bed and 50% N at tillering (70DAS) of the recommended 120 kgha-1 (right dark bars); NS2: 25% N at seedbed; 50% N at tillering (70DAS) and 25% N at anthesis (110 DAS) (light central bars); NS3: 25% N at seedbed, 25% N at tillering (70 DAS) and 50% N at anthesis (110 DAS) to wheat crop (left gray bars).
