The present document is an errata to address mistakes that were overlooked in the final version of the master thesis document submitted to Brage. The information to be corrected is the following:
1. Second paragraph, page 16: The reported variety of rye grass used in the experiment was “Lolium perenne”. The correct information is “Lolium multiflorum ‘Macho’”
2. Figure 4.1, page 34: Letters indicating significant differences between treatments was not shown in the submitted version. The correct figure is:
Figure 4.1 Mean shoot biomass yield per pot for the different treatments. Values are shown on a dry basis. Error bars indicate standard deviation (n=5). Different letters indicate
significant difference (α=0.05, n=25).
3. First paragraph, fourth sentence, page 47: The sentence stating:
“An additional comparison can be made with the content of plant available N at the beginning of the pot trial, for instance, in treatment BCNPK, which had 286 mg of plant available P mostly as NO3-”.
The correct text for the underlined part of the sentence is: “available N mostly as NO3-“
