Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Glucobrassicin was significantly greater in kale treated with T3 and T4 gypsum levels than in the control, T1 and T2.
- Intervention effect Neoglucobrassicin followed the same increasing trend under gypsum treatment as glucobrassicin.
- Intervention effect Aliphatic glucosinolates did not follow the increase seen for indolyl glucosinolates under gypsum treatment.
- Intervention effect Total isothiocyanate content of T4 was more than twice that of any other treatment, once hydrolyzed with endogenous myrosinase.
- Intervention effect Total isothiocyanate content of T2 and T3 was only slightly greater than the control, once hydrolyzed with endogenous myrosinase.
- Intervention effect Gypsum compromised kale seedling survival.
