Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Fe-EDTA applications increased wheat growth and yield traits over control.
- Intervention effect Most growth and yield parameters did not differ significantly among Fe-EDTA application methods.
- Intervention effect Fe-EDTA treatments increased wheat grain Fe relative to control, with soil plus foliar application reaching 86.54 ± 5.57 mg kg-1.
- Intervention effect Soil plus foliar Fe-EDTA produced high Fe buildup in surface soil.
- Intervention effect Fe-EDTA treatments increased wheat grain yield by 21.2 to 29.1%.
- Intervention effect Fe-EDTA treatments increased wheat grain Fe concentration 1.9 to 4.3 times.
