Other claims from this paper (8)
- Method / resource One-equation DRIS indices had element-specific minimum or maximum limits.
- Method / resource The possible range of DRIS index values varied considerably among elements.
- Method / resource Using the unsigned sum of DRIS indices masked some relative deficiencies or excesses.
- Method / resource The two-equation procedure lessened but did not eliminate those diagnostic problems.
- Method / resource Relations between DRIS indices and concentrations differed across N, K, P, Ca, Mg, Mn, Fe, Cu, B and Zn regardless of calculation method.
- Method / resource Some DRIS indices depended so strongly on their own element concentration that ratio diagnosis offered little advantage over sufficiency-range diagnosis.
- Method / resource Other DRIS indices depended on concentrations of other elements enough to be of little use for nutritional evaluation.
- Method / resource DRIS did not detect every deficiency or excess.
