Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Boron supply increased soybean seed protein content.
- Intervention effect Boron supply decreased soybean shoot dry weight.
- Intervention effect TĂźrksoy seed oil had its highest stearic and oleic acid ratio at 2 mg B/kg.
- Intervention effect Deficiency had the highest total oil content at 12 mg B/kg, with 8% higher total oil content.
- Intervention effect Boron treatments decreased the saturated-to-unsaturated fatty acid ratio in cultivar 13935.
- Intervention effect Boron treatments decreased the saturated-to-unsaturated fatty acid ratio in ME 3399.
- Intervention effect Boron treatments increased the saturated-to-unsaturated fatty acid ratio in TĂźrksoy.
- Intervention effect Boron treatments increased the saturated-to-unsaturated fatty acid ratio in Deficiency.
- Intervention effect ME 3399 seed oil had its highest α-linolenic acid level under 12 mg B/kg soil treatment.
- Intervention effect High boron concentrations diminished soybean seed yield except in TĂźrksoy.
- Mechanism The authors infer that boron is involved in soybean seed protein and fatty acid formation.
- Recommendation The authors recommend further research into the mechanisms of boron effects.
