Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Wheat growth was optimal at 4.0 meq S L−1.
- Intervention effect Biomass declined at sulfur levels of 1.0, 2.0, 6.0 and 8.0 meq S L−1.
- Association Sulfur concentration fell in deficient plants.
- Association Sulfur concentration rose in excess-sulfur plants.
- Intervention effect Deficient sulfur reduced spike and seed number and weight.
- Intervention effect Seed number per spike fell under deficient and excess sulfur.
- Association Seed cysteine concentration increased with sulfur supply.
- Intervention effect Seed carbohydrates and storage proteins were lower under deficient sulfur than at 4.0 meq S L−1.
- Intervention effect Seed carbohydrates and storage proteins were lower under excess sulfur than at 4.0 meq S L−1.
