Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Corn genotypes varied considerably in the severity of Zn deficiency symptoms and growth depression under Zn stress.
- Intervention effect Shoot and root dry matter yield depression under Zn stress was 78 to 95 and 72 to 94%, respectively, relative to 5 ppm supplemental Zn.
- Observation Zn concentration in different corn genotypes under Zn stress varied from 7.4 to 20.5 ppm.
- Mechanism Differential response among corn genotypes was associated with their capability to exploit soil Zn and/or translocate it to the shoot.
- Observation The P/Zn and Fe/Zn balance in tissues did not significantly contribute to the variability in Zn responses of corn.
