Other claims from this paper (16)
- Intervention effect P3 phosphorus increased maize grain yield by 12.0 and 12.5% over the control (P1) in 2006 and 2007.
- Intervention effect Soil application of 10 kg Zn per fad under P3 gave the highest grain yield.
- Intervention effect Foliar urea plus Zn treatment gave the highest maize biomass in the second season.
- Intervention effect Zn0(S) and U+Zn(F) treatments gave the highest 1000-grain weight in both seasons.
- Intervention effect Zn20(S) gave the maximum maize grain P content under P3 and P2 in the two seasons.
- Intervention effect Zn10(S) and Zn(F) gave the maximum maize stem P content under P2.
- Intervention effect U+Zn(F) gave the maximum maize grain Zn content under P2.
- Intervention effect Zn(F) gave the maximum maize stem Zn content under P3.
- Intervention effect U+Zn(F) gave the maximum maize grain and stem Fe content under P1.
- Intervention effect U+Zn(F) gave the maximum maize grain and stem Mn content under P3.
- Observation Translocation of heavy metals from stem to grain in maize follows the decreasing sequence Zn > Mn > Fe.
- Intervention effect Increasing P fertilizer from P1 to P3 increased available P, Fe and Mn in soil.
- Intervention effect Increasing P fertilizer from P1 to P2 increased available Zn in soil.
- Intervention effect At P3, available Zn decreased compared with P2 in soil.
- Intervention effect U+Zn(F) gave the highest available P, Fe and Mn in soil.
- Intervention effect Zn20(S) gave the highest available Zn in soil.
