e0“Soil pH was reduced and chemical composition of peanut leaves, hulls, and seed was influenced more by gypsum than by either dolomitic limestone or potassium”
Title
Effects of Dolomitic Limestone, Gypsum, and Potassium on Yield and Seed Quality of Peanuts1
G. A. Sullivan; G. L. Jones; R. P. Moore Peanut Science 1974. doi:10.3146/i0095-3679-1-2-9
Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Limestone raised soil pH and calcium levels.
- Intervention effect Limestone did not improve peanut seed quality.
- Intervention effect Limestone did not increase peanut yields or fruit kernel content.
- Intervention effect Gypsum improved seed germination, survival and vigor.
- Intervention effect Gypsum improved root growth.
- Intervention effect Gypsum reduced dark plumule abnormality.
- Intervention effect Gypsum affected leaf, hull and seed chemical composition more than limestone or potassium.
- Intervention effect Potassium was less detrimental to fruit yield and seed quality when combined with gypsum.
- Association Low seed calcium was associated with watery hypocotyl and physiological root breakdown.
