Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Phosphorus fertilizer increased plant P concentration during leaf expansion.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus fertilizer had no effect on biomass production.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus fertilizer had no effect on lint yield.
- Observation At flowering, over half of taken-up P came from the fertilized soil band.
- Observation Recovery of applied P was 1.2–3.4%.
- Observation Applied phosphorus remained available through the experiment.
- Recommendation Pre-plant P fertilizer applications can remain effective, but benefit crops only when soil P limits growth.
