Other claims from this paper (3)
- Intervention effect Leaf area, dry matter and root length did not differ statistically among the aluminum ratio treatments.
- Association The root to shoot ratio tended to vary inversely with the base to aluminum ratio.
- Observation The authors interpret Porva maize as highly aluminum sensitive regardless of the base to aluminum ratio.
