A. H. Khoshgoftarmansh; H. Kheir Abadi; Z. Khanmohammadi; et al. Journal of Plant Nutrition 2012. doi:10.1080/01904167.2012.706677
Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Zn application increased dry matter yield of corn in most soils in a greenhouse experiment.
- Association Soil electrical conductivity was positively correlated with Zn concentration in shoots, roots and whole plant of corn.
- Association Shoot Zn content of corn was negatively correlated with buffer capacity of Zn in soil.
- Observation Critical deficiency levels of soil Zn for corn were 1.35 and 1.23 mg kg-1 by the Cate-Nelson and Mitscherlich methods.
