Figure S1 Crown root number per first (S1A), second (S1B), and third (S1C) whorl of
maize 28 days after planting under high N and low N conditions in soil mesocosms. Data
shown are means with 4 replicates ± SE of the means. Means with the same letters are not
significantly different (p < 0.05)
Figure S2: Correlations between crown root number and rooting depth (measured as D95;
R2=0.68, p=0.04) at flowering under low N conditions in the field in USA.
Figure S3: Root length density at different soil depths for each genotypes and its crown root number (CN) under low nitrogen conditions in the field in USA with corresponding D95. D95 measures the depth above which 95% of root length is present.
Figure S4: Soil nitrate levels at different soil depths 9 weeks after planting in the field in
South Africa (SA2012).
Table S1 Mean and Standard Error (SE) of shoot traits at 28 days after planting under
high and low N conditions in six maize RILs in greenhouse mesocosms.
