Title
Effects of Nitrogen and Calcium Supply on the Accumulation of Oxalate in Soybean Seeds
John G. Streeter Crop Science 2005. doi:10.2135/cropsci2004.0207
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation The nonnodulating isoline had a significant decline in ureide supply to developing seeds.
- Observation Oxalate concentration was not reduced in nonnodulating isoline seeds.
- Intervention effect Increased calcium supply had no significant effect on calcium concentrations in leaves, pod walls or seeds.
- Intervention effect The calcium treatment did not significantly alter oxalate accumulation in developing seeds.
- Association Oxalate and calcium concentrations were generally significantly correlated within sampling times.
- Observation Developing seeds had 2‐ to 3‐fold higher oxalate concentration than mature seeds.
- Mechanism The authors infer that unknown factors drive oxalate accumulation and calcium binding.
- Recommendation The authors recommend selection of low-oxalate genotypes to lower soybean seed oxalate.
