Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Water stress and restricted irrigation adversely affected chlorophylls, carotenoids and nitrogen-metabolising enzyme activity in sorghum.
- Intervention effect Water stress increased ROS production in sorghum.
- Intervention effect Potassium ameliorated the water-stress-induced ROS production to some extent.
- Intervention effect Potassium increased the contents of GSH and AsA in sorghum.
- Intervention effect Added potassium affected growth and yield parameters positively under both normal and stress conditions.
- Mechanism Potassium mitigates water-stress-induced changes in sorghum, possibly by enhancing nitrogen use efficiency.
- Observation Potassium effects showed similar trends in seedlings and plants grown in sand culture and in the field.
