Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Increased soil zinc supply increased rosette-stage shoot dry matter by up to 100%.
- Intervention effect Increased soil zinc supply increased green-bud-stage shoot dry matter by up to 50%.
- Intervention effect Zinc fertilizer stimulated yield even where soil zinc was 0.84 mg Zn kg^<-1>.
- Observation Young leaves had more than adequate zinc from rosette through green bud stage.
- Mechanism The authors infer transient zinc deficiency after transplanting limited final seed yield.
