Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Leaf malondialdehyde content increased by 22% in rootstock Garnem under Fe deficiency.
- Intervention effect Leaf malondialdehyde content increased by 15% in rootstock GF 677 under Fe deficiency.
- Intervention effect Leaf total phenolic content decreased in both rootstocks under Fe deficiency.
- Intervention effect Leaf chlorophyll and chlorophyll precursor concentrations decreased under Fe deficiency.
- Intervention effect Midrib thickness and xylem thickness decreased because of Fe deficiency.
- Intervention effect Xylem conduit width and number of xylem conduits decreased because of Fe deficiency.
- Observation The decreases in the xylem and midrib parameters under Fe deficiency were higher in rootstock Garnem.
- Mechanism Iron triggered leaf cell division, but cell expansion could not occur due to the lack of Fe.
- Mechanism Fe is a prerequisite for chlorophyll biosynthesis and leaf cell expansion.
- Observation GF 677 is a more tolerant rootstock to Fe deficiency than Garnem.
- Recommendation GF 677 can be used in peach orchards subjected to Fe deficiency conditions.
