e0“A greenhouse study was carried out to assess the influence of different P rates on the Zn phytoavailability to sorghum-Sudan grass (Sorghum vulgare var. Sudanese) in soil systems by DGT”
e4“In general, increasing P concentrations in the soil increased shoot yields relative to control, while increasing Zn concentrations decreased the relative shoot yields where no P was added.”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Association Plant tissue Zn concentrations rose with increasing Zn concentration in soil.
- Intervention effect P application decreased plant Zn concentrations in sorghum-Sudan grass.
- Intervention effect P application increased plant biomass yields of sorghum-Sudan grass.
- Association The highest relative shoot yield occurred with the P200 × Zn150 treatment.
- Association The lowest relative shoot yield occurred with the P0 × Zn1200 treatment.
- Intervention effect Increasing P concentrations in soil increased relative shoot yields compared with control.
- Intervention effect P addition decreased Zn phytoavailability in sorghum-Sudan grass soil systems.
- Intervention effect P addition enhanced plant growth of sorghum-Sudan grass.
- Recommendation The authors suggest P addition as an alternative strategy for remediation of Zn-contaminated soil.
- Method / resource DGT did not predict the effects of P additions compared with Zn.
