The percentage of total aboveground N accumulation derived from N2 fixation (%Ndfa) (a) and the calculation N derived from the atmosphere (Ndfa) (b) of intercropped pea (IP) or sole pea (SP), with two N treatments (N0, 0 kg N ha−1; and N1, 225 kg N ha−1 for pea and 450 kg N ha−1 for maize) and three maize densities (D1, 73,600 plants ha−1; D2, 85,900 plants ha−1; and D3, 98,200 plants ha−1 for sole maize; the relative density of intercropped maize (according to the proportion of occupied area in intercropping) was 45,000, 52,500, and 60,000 plants ha−1 for D1, D2, and D3, respectively).
