Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Amendments and priming significantly affected grain yield, straw yield, harvest index and spike number.
- Observation The interaction between amendments and priming was not significant for those yield measures.
- Intervention effect Gypsum plus FYM produced the highest crop yields and yield index.
- Intervention effect Gypsum solution seed priming produced the highest crop yields and yield index.
- Intervention effect Treatment effects on seed emergence, plant height and grains per spike were not significant.
- Intervention effect Gypsum plus FYM raised grain yield 104% over control.
- Intervention effect Water priming raised grain yield 16.8% relative to no priming.
- Intervention effect Gypsum priming raised grain yield 8.5% relative to no priming.
- Intervention effect Gypsum plus FYM increased 1000-grain weight by 35%.
- Intervention effect Gypsum priming increased 1000-grain weight by 15.8%.
- Intervention effect Amendments increased wheat phosphorus content.
- Intervention effect Amendments increased wheat potassium content.
- Intervention effect Amendments significantly reduced soil gypsum requirement.
- Recommendation The authors recommended these amendments to ameliorate salt-affected soil for wheat growth.
