- Intervention effect Zinc addition significantly increased dry matter yield of maize roots, stem and leaf sheath.
- Intervention effect Zinc addition significantly increased dry matter yield of maize leaf blade.
- Intervention effect Magnesium decreased yields of maize roots, stem, leaf sheath and leaf blade.
- Intervention effect Mg at 60 ppm reduced total dry matter yield of maize to 35% in the absence of Zn.
- Intervention effect In the presence of 5 ppm Zn, the reduction of maize total dry matter yield by Mg at 60 ppm was only 12%.
- Association The depressing effect of Mg on calcium concentration in maize was much higher than that of Zn.
- Intervention effect Incorporation of Mg reduced calcium uptake in maize roots to 62%.
- Intervention effect Incorporation of Mg reduced calcium uptake in another maize organ to 76%.
- Mechanism Mg inhibited translocation of calcium from root to shoot in maize.
- Intervention effect Zinc application reduced soil available calcium to 27%.
- Intervention effect Magnesium reduced soil available calcium to 39%, compared with zinc application.
