- Intervention effect Water stress disturbed sunflower water relations and nutrient acquisition.
- Intervention effect Water stress disturbed amino acid accumulation and antioxidative defense mechanisms.
- Intervention effect Foliar FeSO4 reduced adverse effects of limited irrigation on biomass and seed yield.
- Intervention effect Foliar Fe-Asp reduced adverse effects of limited irrigation on biomass and seed yield.
- Intervention effect The foliar iron treatments reduced lipid peroxidation and improved water relations and antioxidative defenses under limited irrigation.
- Intervention effect Fe-Asp improved plant water relations more than FeSO4.
- Intervention effect Fe-Asp produced greater essential amino acid accumulation and nutrient acquisition than FeSO4.
- Intervention effect Fe-Asp improved leaf aspartate and iron accumulation and translocation compared with FeSO4.
- Recommendation The authors recommend foliar Fe-Asp for sunflower growth and production under limited irrigation.
