Three experiments were conducted in the Coastal Plain region of Virginia on Kenansville loamy sand, Dothan loamy sand, and Pactolus loamy sand soils. These three soils have low monocalcium phosphate-acetic acid extractable SO/sub 4/-S (<3.1 kg/ha) and would be expected to be S deficient with respect to corn (Zea mays L.) Winter wheat response to S application was investigated on the Kenansville and Dothan soils, while the N x S interaction was studies on the Pactolus soil. Yields were not significantly influenced by S application and averaged 5.6 Mg/ha for the Kenansville and 4.3 Mg/ha for the Dothan soils. In the N x S interaction study, yield increased linearly with increased N application, and N and P tissue concentrations were increased with N application. These data indicate that S concentrations of 0.20% and a N/S ratio of 18 in the flag leaf at Feekes growth stage 10 is sufficient for high yields. The absence of S deficiency in these relatively high-yielding experiments on coarse textured soils with a low levels of extractable SO/sub 4/-S may be related to atmospheric accretions during much of the wheat growing season.
