Introduction:Nitrogen is a crucial element in plant nutrition, influencing both growth and disease resistance. A recent study explores how different nitrogen levels impact lettuce’s susceptibility to fungal pathogens Botrytis cinerea and Sclerotinia minor. Researchers found that lower nitrogen concentrations improve resistance by reducing oxidative stress and enhancing polyphenol content. For more groundbreaking research on plant…
