Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect At Yancheng, 2.5 kg·hm −2 boron increased cotton yield by 14.7%–25.9%.
- Observation Quadratic fitting estimated an optimal boron rate of 1.90–2.36 kg·hm −2 for CCRI 425.
- Observation Quadratic fitting estimated an optimal boron rate of 2.05–2.36 kg·hm −2 for Siza 3.
- Observation The middle cotton canopy contributed 48.2% of total yield.
- Intervention effect Middle canopy yield responded significantly to boron application rates.
- Intervention effect Boll number, especially in the middle canopy, responded significantly to boron application rates.
- Association Boll number was the main factor contributing to yield formation differences.
- Recommendation The authors recommend cultivar-tailored boron application within 1.90–2.36 kg·hm −2 for yield maximization.
- Recommendation The authors emphasize location- and cultivar-specific boron management.
