Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation More than 300 lettuce metabolites were identified, and 55 varied significantly by amendment type.
- Association Fifty-five metabolites changed significantly in relative abundance by amendment type.
- Intervention effect Chemical fertilizers increased carbohydrate and nitrogen metabolism metabolites.
- Intervention effect Sewage sludge did not cause measurable adverse effects on lettuce phenotype or metabolism.
- Intervention effect Swine manure did not cause measurable adverse effects on lettuce phenotype or metabolism.
- Mechanism The authors attribute differences in fertilizer-associated metabolic changes mainly to nitrogen availability.
