Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect With X-14, a 0-10 cm barrier gave significantly larger maize ear yield than deeper barriers or the control.
- Intervention effect With X-14, a 0-10 cm barrier gave significantly larger maize total biomass yield than deeper barriers or the control.
- Intervention effect Root barrier depth did not significantly affect maize crop yield when intercropped with Red Spanish.
- Recommendation The authors judged X-14 more suitable than Red Spanish for intercropping with maize, probably because of topsoil rooting differences.
