Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Fe imbibition significantly increases Fe content in broccoli seedlings, most with sulphates at 500 mg per dm3.
- Intervention effect Imbibition in sulphates in general does not affect the germination rate of broccoli seedlings.
- Intervention effect Imbibition in chlorites hampers the germination process of broccoli seedlings.
- Intervention effect Fe at 500 mg per dm3 applied as FeSO4 enhances antioxidant activity in broccoli seedlings.
- Intervention effect Fe applied as FeCl2 and FeCl3 stimulates the accumulation of anthocyanins in broccoli seedlings.
