Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect ZnEDTA and ZnSO4 increased maize dry matter production by an average of 16% versus control.
- Intervention effect At 2.5 mg kg-1 Zn, ZnEDTA gave 1.3-fold greater shoot Zn uptake than ZnSO4.
- Intervention effect At higher doses, maize Zn uptake from ZnEDTA was approximately twice that from ZnSO4.
- Intervention effect Increasing ZnEDTA doses enhanced soil DTPA Zn concentration to 1.8, 3.0 and 6.3 mg kg-1.
- Intervention effect Increasing ZnSO4 doses enhanced soil DTPA Zn concentration to 1.9, 3.5 and 6.5 mg kg-1.
- Observation Plants absorbed 0.6-1.7% of added Zn doses.
- Observation For both fertilizers, 48-59% of added Zn was measured back as DTPA-Zn.
- Mechanism The remaining added Zn presumably converted to less available forms.
