The Effects of Different Fertilization Practices in Combination with the Use of PGPR on the Sugar and Amino Acid Content of <i>Asparagus officinalis</i>

The present study examined the effects of different nitrogen (NH<sub>4</sub>NO<sub>3</sub>) and potassium (KNO<sub>3</sub>) fertilization levels in combination with a nitrogen-fixing, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) inoculation on the carbohydrate (CHO...
