What does this research mean for the field?

Sulphur management parameters in pea plants, including content, uptake, and efficiency indices, fluctuate significantly across developmental stages but maintain adequate sulphur supply throughout the growing season under standard fertilization. Novelty: ClaimNovelty.INCREMENTAL. Consensus alignment: ConsensusAlignment.NEUTRAL.

What question did this study set out to answer?

This study aims to evaluate the sulphur management parameters in pea plants during their development periods.
Conducted a two-year study assessing sulphur content, uptake, internal efficiency index, harvest index, and N:S ratio across six development stages (BBCH 14 to BBCH 90).
Fertilized plants with 34 kg·ha−1 of sulphur and 30 kg·ha−1 of nitrogen in the form of ammonium sulphate before sowing.
Analyzed root, aerial parts, and seeds at full maturity.
Sulphur content ranged from 2.70 to 5.02 g S·kg−1 dry weight during various growth stages.
Sulphur uptake values varied between 1.19 to 18.45 kg S·ha−1.
Harvest index values for whole aerial mass ranged from 0.49 to 0.98, with notable increases in sulphur parameters up to certain stages and stability in late stages.
