Balanced nitrogen–iron sufficiency boosts grain yield and nitrogen use efficiency by promoting tillering

(Molecular Plant 16, 1661–1677; October 2 2023) After publication of our article, we detected a few errors in the figures. In Figure 1, we highlight the impact of N–Fe balance and OsNLP4 genotypes on grain yield and NUE; however, we mistakenly used an incorrect image in the far-left panel of Figure 1F and mistakenly omitted labels throughout Figure 1F. In Figure 3B, a scale bar was missing. In Figure 4L, HN-HFe was mislabeled as LH-HFe, and in Figure 4S, the lanes were not properly aligned. The figures have now been rectified, both in the article online and below, with the correct panel images and labels. The authors apologize for the errors.

The results also show that the balanced N–Fe fertilizer can significantly improve grain yield and NUE in both rice and wheat under field conditions. Full-Text PDF
