Synopsis Nitrogen‐fertilized roots were consistently higher in growth activity than roots not fertilized with nitrogen on a total roots per treatment basis. Phosphorus‐fertilized root extracts had less growth activity than nitrogen‐fertilized root extracts, and about equal or less growth activity than extracts from roots not fertilized with nitrogen or phosphorus.
