Other claims from this paper (6)
- Association Zn and Cu interact antagonistically on wheat growth when one element is added in low amounts.
- Intervention effect Large applied amounts of Zn and Cu increased their concentrations in wheat plants.
- Intervention effect Large applied amounts of Zn and Cu adversely affected wheat plant growth.
- Intervention effect Applied Zn generally did not affect the uptake of native or low amounts of applied Cu.
- Intervention effect Applied Cu did not significantly affect DTPA-extractable Zn in the experimental soils.
- Association Zn or Cu application may not affect or increase each other uptake, depending on soil characteristics and application rates.
