Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect MC spraying at early reproductive stage B3 reduced cotton root length across cultivars.
- Observation The early-stage root length reductions began about two weeks after MC spraying.
- Intervention effect MC up to 30 g ha −1 hindered cotton shoot growth for two weeks.
- Intervention effect MC at 60 g ha −1 hindered cotton shoot growth for three weeks.
- Recommendation The authors recommend at most 30 g ha −1 MC for the first cotton application.
