Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Elevated phosphorus inhibited zinc movement from roots to tops.
- Intervention effect Elevated phosphorus sharply reduced nodal and internodal zinc concentrations.
- Observation No tissue phosphorus to zinc threshold predicted yield restriction.
- Association Corn appeared to tolerate high tissue phosphorus when modest zinc was present.
- Intervention effect Other elements somewhat counteracted phosphorus damage.
- Intervention effect Concurrently placed nitrogen promoted zinc uptake.
- Intervention effect Concurrently placed nitrogen benefited phosphorus utilization.
- Intervention effect Increased native or applied potassium reduced phosphorus depressive effects on zinc.
