Title
Mineral element concentrations of sorghum genotypes grown on tropical acid soil
R. B. Clark; L. M. Gourley Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis 1988. doi:10.1080/00103628809367991
Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Fifty sorghum genotypes differed in dry matter yield and concentrations of P, K, Ca, Mg, S, Si, Al, Mn, Cu, and Zn.
- Intervention effect Leaf Al, Mn, and Fe concentrations were higher at 2 than at 6 Mg lime ha‐1.
- Intervention effect At 6 Mg ha‐1 lime, leaf Ca and Si concentrations increased.
- Mechanism Silicon may have reduced toxic Al and possibly toxic Fe effects.
- Recommendation Mineral element concentrations varied enough among genotypes that selection for improved values appears feasible.
