Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Boron accumulation in beet was greatest in mature leaves, then young leaves, mature petioles, young petioles, and roots.
- Intervention effect Boron stress promoted beet leaf thickening.
- Intervention effect Boron stress significantly decreased indole-3-acetic acid, gibberellin A3, and zeatin levels in beet leaves.
- Intervention effect Boron stress increased abscisic acid levels in beet leaves.
- Intervention effect Superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, and catalase levels increased significantly in beet leaves under boron stress.
- Intervention effect Malondialdehyde and proline levels increased significantly in beet leaves under boron stress.
- Mechanism The authors infer that altered hormones and oxidative stress responses mediate boron stress inhibition of beet growth.
