Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Copper deficiency affected the amounts of phenolic compounds released from cell walls of young wheat leaves before yield decreased significantly.
- Intervention effect Copper deficiency decreased yield significantly.
- Intervention effect Copper-deficient wheat young leaves released more ferulic acid from cell walls than copper-adequate ones.
- Intervention effect Copper-deficient wheat young leaves released less p-coumaric acid from cell walls than copper-adequate ones.
- Association The differences in phenolic release between copper-deficient and copper-adequate plants were less marked in older leaves than in younger leaves.
- Intervention effect Copper deficiency decreased the lignin, hemicellulose and acetyl contents of cell walls only in severely deficient plants.
