Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Drought-irrigated corn had longer shoots than normally irrigated corn between days 25 and 60.
- Intervention effect SA-sprayed corn had similar shoot lengths under the two irrigation regimes on day 65.
- Intervention effect Drought irrigation improved corn ear diameter relative to normal irrigation.
- Intervention effect Drought irrigation improved corn ear weight relative to normal irrigation.
- Intervention effect SA application increased shoot fresh weight and ear growth under normal irrigation.
- Intervention effect SA plus CaCl2 increased ear diameter in drought-irrigated corn.
- Recommendation The authors propose SA and CaCl2 to promote growth and yield in acidic soil.
