Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association Soil phosphorus or lime detrimentally affects corn zinc concentration.
- Intervention effect Readily available phosphorus fertilizer can aggravate or create zinc deficiency.
- Association Greater utilization of applied phosphorus corresponds to a more severe reduction in zinc utilization.
- Mechanism Phosphorus damage to zinc utilization is considered primarily a root-cell absorption phenomenon.
- Mechanism Root proliferation in bands of row-placed phosphorus may contribute to reduced zinc access.
- Recommendation Low phosphorus rates are recommended over heavy infrequent applications to limit zinc damage.
- Recommendation Supplemental zinc is recommended when phosphorus is added where zinc availability is uncertain.
