Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Moderate root-cutting slowed root system growth at the early stage of peanut.
- Intervention effect Moderate root-cutting promoted root growth in deep soil of peanut.
- Intervention effect Moderate root-cutting increased the proportion of middle and lower segments of the peanut root system.
- Intervention effect Moderate root-cutting reduced root senescence in peanut by delaying the time of maximum root vigor, SOD and POD activity.
- Intervention effect Moderate root-cutting reduced malondialdehyde (MDA) content in the root system of each soil layer of peanut.
- Intervention effect Moderate root-cutting improved valid pods, pod yield and seed yield of peanut, whereas excessive root-cutting did not.
- Recommendation The authors recommend a root-cutting depth of 10 to 15 cm for peanut.
