Other claims from this paper (8)
- Method / resource The solution technique induced zinc deficiency in sorghum, wheat and corn.
- Intervention effect Zinc deficiency shortened internodes in the three cereals.
- Intervention effect Zinc deficiency reduced shoot zinc concentration in the three cereals.
- Intervention effect Sorghum increased root phytosiderophore release under zinc deficiency.
- Intervention effect Wheat increased root phytosiderophore release under zinc deficiency.
- Intervention effect Corn did not increase root phytosiderophore release under zinc deficiency.
- Observation Total root phytosiderophore release ranked wheat above sorghum above corn.
- Mechanism Corn requires or accumulates more zinc than wheat or sorghum, helping explain its greater field zinc deficiency prevalence.
