Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Nitrogen plus micronutrient spraying increased cotton plant height, flower number and open boll number.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen plus micronutrient spraying increased cotton seed index and seed oil and protein percentages.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen plus micronutrient spraying increased total chlorophyll content in cotton leaves.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen plus micronutrient spraying decreased cotton shedding and earliness percentage.
- Intervention effect Micronutrient spraying and nitrogen fertilizer levels did not affect cotton lint percent.
- Intervention effect Increasing soil nitrogen from 45 to 65 kg N/fed significantly decreased cotton earliness.
- Intervention effect Foliar zinc, manganese, boron and iron sprays promoted cotton earliness to some extent.
- Intervention effect Foliar micronutrient spraying combined with soil nitrogen was more effective than nitrogen fertilizer alone.
- Intervention effect Foliar micronutrient spraying combined with soil nitrogen was possibly better than each micronutrient alone.
