Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Low pod-zone pH delayed groundnut pod initiation.
- Intervention effect At pH 3.0, groundnut had almost no pod expansion.
- Intervention effect 12% of gynophores developed into pods at pH 3.0, compared with 91–95% at pH ≥ 5.0.
- Intervention effect 55% of gynophores developed into pods at 4.0, compared with 91–95% at pH ≥ 5.0.
- Intervention effect Pods at pH 3.0 contained no seeds.
- Intervention effect Pods at pH 4.0 had a hollow, dark cotyledon area.
- Intervention effect Normal seeds and embryos formed at pH ≥ 5.0.
- Intervention effect Plumule development was faster at pH ≥ 5.0 than at pH 4.0.
- Intervention effect Pod dry mass reached 90% of maximum at pH 5.62–6.69.
- Intervention effect Septate and non-septate pod hairs formed across all tested pH regimes.
- Intervention effect Pod hairs were denser at higher pH.
- Intervention effect Pod hairs were more persistent at higher pH.
- Intervention effect Kernel calcium concentration decreased as pH decreased.
- Association Kernel calcium concentration was highly correlated with solution pH.
