Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation Wheat varieties differed significantly in the studied morphological characters.
- Association In durum wheat, seed phosphorus levels correlated positively with root length.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that higher seed phosphorus content helped some varieties achieve a good start.
- Recommendation The authors recommend considering seed phosphorus content when choosing durum wheat varieties for regions where phosphorus is scarce at sowing.
