Other claims from this paper (9)
- Mechanism Integrated nutrient management, especially F+BH, mitigated deficit irrigation effects by improving translocation, osmotic adjustment and oxidative stress tolerance.
- Intervention effect F+BH increased chlorophyll a and b by 8.6%.
- Intervention effect F+BH increased photosynthesis by 7.7%.
- Intervention effect F+BH increased stomatal conductance by 13.8%.
- Intervention effect F+BH reduced proline by 26.2%.
- Intervention effect DI+F+BH improved water use efficiency by 53.3% against FI+ON.
- Association Principal component analysis identified calcium, boron and zinc as key contributors to metabolic efficiency and drought resilience.
- Intervention effect DI+F+BH sustained productivity and enhanced physiological traits, grain protein and economic returns.
- Recommendation The authors present DI plus F+BH as a water-saving strategy in arid regions.
