Trajectories of biomass production and nitrogen (N) uptake of total (A, B), shoot (C, D) and root (E, F) by isolated (iso: open circles and dashed line), monocropped (mono: open triangles and dashed curve), intercropped (inter: solid symbols and continuous line) wheat and according faba bean.

Abstract

<p>Data was derived from the logistic equation using the mean of actual data at each sampling. Numbers near the curves represent the samplings time (day). The dashed line shows the 1∶1 relationships between faba bean and wheat.</p
