Other claims from this paper (3)
- Intervention effect At suboptimal nitrogen, pepper yield significantly decreased only above irrigation salinity of ECiw 4 dS m−1.
- Observation At high salinity, pepper yield responses were similar at both nitrogen levels.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that pepper needs less nitrogen fertilization under saline conditions than optimal levels established without other major stresses.
