Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Zinc increased maize uptake of other nutrients, especially nitrogen, in the greenhouse.
- Intervention effect Fertilizing with 2.5 ppm zinc maximized maize growth.
- Association Leaf zinc concentrations did not directly affect caterpillars.
- Association Fall armyworm caterpillars responded to leaf nitrogen.
- Intervention effect Field zinc fertilization had a much smaller effect on zinc uptake and nitrogen concentration.
- Association In the field, nitrogen still affected fall armyworm performance.
- Association Field nitrogen was not directly related to zinc dose.
- Intervention effect Zinc treatment did not affect maize yield.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that increased zinc fertility may raise herbivore susceptibility.
