Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Virus infection decreased fresh and dry matter in maize.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid enhanced fresh and dry matter production in both cultivars irrespective of virus type or SA concentration.
- Observation Root fresh and dry matter were unaffected.
- Observation Shoot water content exceeded root water content, especially in cultivar sabaini.
- Intervention effect Proline accumulated in SA treated virus infected plants, especially cultivar sabaini, versus the reference control.
- Intervention effect Soluble proteins and soluble sugars accumulated in SA treated virus infected plants versus reference control.
- Observation Cultivar sabaini accumulated more soluble proteins and sugars than Nab El-gamal under SA and virus treatment.
- Intervention effect Virus infection reduced nitrate reductase activity in maize cultivars.
- Observation Virus infection affected nitrate reductase activity more strongly in sabaini than Nab El-gamal.
- Intervention effect SA preserved nitrate reductase activity but it remained below the reference control.
