t0“in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)”
e1“Compared to the control, B deficiency treatment resulted in large increases in the number of petioles with brown rings per plant (160.0%) and the number of rings on the petiole per functional leaf (711.1%) in cotton seedlings”
e2“The relative absorbance intensity in the fingerprint region of polysaccharide structure was decreased in petiole rings under B deficiency, while lignin contents were increased”

- Intervention effect Boron deficiency increased the number of petioles with brown rings per cotton plant by 160.0% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Boron deficiency increased the number of rings on the petiole per functional leaf by 711.1% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Boron deficiency decreased the relative absorbance of polysaccharide structure in petiole rings of cotton.
- Intervention effect Cotton plants increased the areas of vascular bundles, phloem, xylem and phloem fiber in petioles, mitigating the impairment of transport function under boron deficiency.
- Intervention effect Boron deficiency significantly decreased stomatal conductance, photosynthetic rate and transpiration rate in cotton leaves.
