Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect All wheat cultivars increased root length density three to nine times in a phosphorus band.
- Observation Root plasticity did not differ significantly among cultivars.
- Intervention effect Cultivars developed longer roots in response to the phosphorus band.
- Intervention effect Cultivars developed about 9% thinner roots in the phosphorus band.
- Intervention effect Root length was 23% longer under phosphorus banding.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus uptake per root length was 78% lower with banding than with uniform phosphorus.
- Recommendation The authors recommend more research before selecting cultivars for increased root length density in nutrient patches.
