Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Potassium with yeast significantly increased maize grain and stalk yields and yield components.
- Intervention effect Potassium enhanced stalk and grain K percentage.
- Intervention effect Potassium decreased maize sodium percentage.
- Mechanism Potassium raised maize salt tolerance through increased K/Na ratio.
- Intervention effect Potassium with yeast increased potassium use efficiency and uptake.
- Observation 30 kg K/fed plus Rhodotorula mucilaginosa gave the highest potassium utilization rate of 84.93%.
- Intervention effect Potassium fertilization increased nitrogen and phosphorus uptake.
- Intervention effect Potassium fertilizers slightly increased soil salinity and fertility.
- Recommendation The authors recommend low potassium levels with yeast to address maize salt stress.
