Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Iron deficiency, especially bicarbonate-induced deficiency, stimulated root growth, more in almond seedlings.
- Association Total iron concentration did not differ significantly between green and chlorotic leaves.
- Association Ferrous iron concentration was much lower in chlorotic than green leaves.
- Intervention effect Iron deficiency severely inhibited iron transport regardless of cause.
- Association Iron transport inhibition was stronger in peach than almond seedlings.
- Association Root acidification capacity was greater in almond than peach seedlings.
- Intervention effect Bicarbonate greatly inhibited iron reduction in both species.
