Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Zinc application significantly increased seed yield of all three onion cultivars in a field experiment.
- Observation The fertilizer Zn requirement for near-maximum onion seed yield was 2 kg Zn ha−1.
- Association Zinc concentration in mature onion seed appeared to be an indicator of soil Zn availability status.
- Observation The critical Zn concentration in onion seed was 18 mg Zn kg−1.
- Observation The critical Zn concentration in onion leaves was 21 mg kg−1.
