Title
Mechanisms of iron toxicity tolerance in lowland rice
Alain Audebert; K. L. Sahrawat Agritrop (Cirad) 1997
Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect P, K and Zn applications increased yield in both rice cultivars.
- Association Rice yield correlated strongly with scored leaf toxicity symptoms across seasons and treatments.
- Observation The tolerant cultivar absorbed less iron or transported less to leaves.
- Observation At a given leaf-iron concentration, the susceptible variety had lower net photosynthetic rates than the tolerant variety.
- Mechanism The authors attribute the tolerant variety’s superior performance partly to lower leaf iron accumulation and greater photosynthetic potential.
- Recommendation The authors suggest P, K and Zn applications could further enhance iron-toxicity tolerance mechanisms.
