Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Leaves of Se-fertilised sweet cherry trees contained more Se.
- Intervention effect Leaves of Se-fertilised sweet cherry trees had enhanced SPAD readings.
- Intervention effect Se treatments did not affect tree growth and fruit yield of sweet cherry.
- Intervention effect Fruit from sweet cherry trees sprayed with Se and CaCl 2 had 15-fold higher Se concentration than control fruit.
- Intervention effect Fruit from sweet cherry trees supplied with Se to the soil had 8-fold higher Se concentration than control fruit.
- Intervention effect Se treatments did not affect fruit size of sweet cherry.
- Intervention effect Se treatments did not affect fruit acidity or soluble solids concentration of sweet cherry.
- Intervention effect Combined sprays of Se and CaCl 2 decreased the incidence of rain-induced fruit cracking in sweet cherry.
- Intervention effect None of the tested Se treatments caused leaf injuries in sweet cherry.
- Recommendation Preharvest Se sprays with or without CaCl 2 can be recommended to biofortify sweet cherry fruit with Se and increase fruit SSC in low-Se soils.
