Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Sunflower green manure alone raised bread wheat grain Zn concentration to 31 mg Zn kg-1.
- Intervention effect Combined sunflower green manure and ZnSO4 increased bread wheat grain Zn concentration further to 54 mg Zn kg-1.
- Intervention effect Sunflower green manure mobilized an additional 48 µg Zn (kg soil)-1 for uptake into aboveground wheat biomass versus plain soil.
- Intervention effect Green manure amendments raised DTPA-extractable soil Zn in wheat pots.
- Intervention effect Non-indigenous AMF inoculation did not increase wheat Zn uptake.
