Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation Untreated corn seeds had 96% germination five days after planting.
- Intervention effect Boron seed treatment above 0.04 g kg-1 reduced initial corn seedling development.
- Association The adverse developmental effects became more pronounced as boron doses increased.
- Intervention effect A 4 g kg-1 boron seed dose caused toxicity and prevented corn seed germination.
