Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Soil Cd significantly decreased maize dry matter yield at every Zn concentration.
- Intervention effect Increasing soil Cd raised maize tissue Cd concentration and uptake more with added Zn than without it.
- Intervention effect Cd application increased maize tissue concentrations of N, P, K, Zn, Cu, and Mn.
- Intervention effect Cd application generally decreased uptake of those nutrients in maize.
- Intervention effect Maize uptake of N and Mn rose up to the 10 mg Cd kg‐1 soil treatment.
- Intervention effect Increasing soil Zn raised maize tissue P, Cu, Mn, and Zn concentrations and uptake.
- Intervention effect Increasing soil Zn left maize tissue N and K concentrations and uptake unaffected.
