e0“A greenhouse pot experiment was performed to study the effect of phosphorus (P) on celery (Apium graveolens L.) growth”
e3“Medium Ca and Mg level (Ca 320 and Mg 192 mg/l) significantly increased celery above-ground fresh weight, total dry biomass and leaf area compared to low (Ca 160 and Mg 96 mg/l) and high (Ca 640 and Mg 384 mg/l) levels”

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Celery above-ground fresh weight, total dry biomass and leaf area increased with P application from 0 to 124 mg/l.
- Intervention effect P, Ca and Mg concentrations in celery leaves increased with P application from 0 to 124 mg/l.
- Association Phosphorus interacted significantly with the level of Ca and Mg in the growing media.
- Intervention effect With increasing P, root/shoot ratio, leaf chlorophyll and carotenoids decreased in celery.
- Intervention effect With increasing P, soluble protein, soluble sugar and vitamin C decreased in celery.
- Intervention effect With increasing P, nitrogen and potassium concentration in celery leaves decreased.
- Recommendation Phosphorus at 124-248 mg/l under medium Ca and Mg is appropriate for celery nutritional requirements.
