Other claims from this paper (3)
- Intervention effect Direct calcium sulfate imbibition stimulated cotton radicle growth at 15 C through concentrations up to 10 mM.
- Intervention effect Cotton radicle growth at 15 C was stimulated when water-moistened seed rolls were adjacent to dilute magnesium sulfate solution in sealed chambers.
- Mechanism The authors attributed the indirect radicle stimulation to sulfate through an unknown mechanism.
