Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Inoculation with Pythium aphanidermatum did not produce significant symptoms on strawberry plants.
- Intervention effect Sucrose-amended nutrient solutions gave strawberry plants smaller root balls than unamended solutions.
- Intervention effect Synthetic nutrient solution gave plants 40% greater aboveground dry mass than aquaponic solution.
- Intervention effect Bacterial richness in substrate was significantly greater with the Synth C solution than with Synth.
- Intervention effect Substrate bacterial community compositions differed significantly between the Aqua and Aqua C treatments.
- Intervention effect Substrate fungal communities did not differ significantly across nutrient solutions.
- Observation Abundant substrate taxa included saprotrophs of refractory organic carbon.
- Observation Abundant substrate taxa included strains with putative plant growth promoting and phytopathogen suppressive effects.
- Recommendation Labile dissolved organic carbon should be kept low in nutrient solutions to maintain strawberry crop health.
