Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Calcium nitrate raised peach leaf nitrogen.
- Intervention effect Calcium nitrate raised peach bark calcium.
- Intervention effect Nonfumigated peach trees had longer lesions than fumigated trees.
- Intervention effect Calcium nitrate did not decrease peach bacterial susceptibility.
- Observation Diseased prune trees developed longer lesions than healthy trees.
- Intervention effect Calcium sprays raised diseased prune leaf calcium.
- Intervention effect Calcium sprays raised diseased prune bark calcium.
- Intervention effect Calcium sprays did not significantly affect prune bacterial susceptibility.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilization increased almond bark nitrogen.
- Intervention effect Nutri-Cal did not affect almond canker susceptibility.
- Mechanism Authors infer nitrogen-dependent and independent effects under nematode infestation.
- Recommendation Authors suggest ammonium nitrogen may reduce canker susceptibility in infested orchards.
