- Intervention effect Application of 50 Kg P/feddan significantly increased wheat dry matter yield over control.
- Intervention effect The 100 Kp/feddan rate decreased wheat dry matter yield relative to 50 Kg P/feddan in both silicon conditions.
- Intervention effect Zinc at 20 kg/feddan increased wheat dry matter yield, especially with 0 or 50 kg P/feddan.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus application increased wheat phosphorus concentration and uptake.
- Intervention effect Zinc application increased wheat zinc concentration and uptake.
- Intervention effect Higher phosphorus levels decreased wheat zinc concentration.
- Intervention effect Increasing phosphorus from 0 to 50 or 100 kg/feddan decreased wheat silicon concentration.
- Intervention effect Applying 20 Kg Zn/feddan slightly increased wheat silicon concentration.
- Intervention effect Silicon-treated soil increased wheat silicon uptake relative to untreated soil.
- Intervention effect Silicon-treated soil increased wheat zinc uptake relative to untreated soil.
