Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Enhanced N increased grain Zn and protein concentrations as well as Zn bioavailability.
- Intervention effect Excessive N input did not result in further improvements.
- Intervention effect Zinc spraying was more effective than soil fertilizer N application.
- Intervention effect Spraying Zn (with or without sucrose) increased grain Zn concentrations by 11.1–15.6 mg·kg–1 relative to deionized water.
- Intervention effect Zn plus sucrose spraying increased grain Zn more than Zn spraying alone.
- Association Grain Zn bioavailability was more sensitive to cultivar selection than to Zn concentration.
- Association Among cultivars, higher grain yield and antinutritional compound concentrations were associated with lower grain Zn nutritional quality.
- Intervention effect 200 kg N ha–1 with foliar Zn + sucrose maximized grain Zn concentration of Jinan 17 at 59.4 mg kg–1.
- Intervention effect 200 kg N ha–1 with foliar Zn + sucrose maximized grain Zn concentration of Jimai 22 at 55.8 mg kg–1.
- Intervention effect 200 kg N ha–1 with foliar Zn + sucrose maximized grain Zn concentration of Luyuan 502 at 60.9 mg kg–1.
- Recommendation Optimal soil N and foliar Zn management with suitable cultivars is recommended to maintain high yield with lower N input and increase grain Zn nutritional quality.
