Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Foliar zinc increased leaf and fruit zinc accumulation relative to control.
- Intervention effect Zinc amino acid complexes increased leaf and fruit zinc concentrations more than zinc sulfate.
- Intervention effect Foliar zinc increased olive oil content in both years, dependent on zinc source.
- Intervention effect Foliar zinc increased phenolic compound concentration in olive oil in both years.
- Intervention effect Foliar zinc increased chlorophyll concentration in olive oil in both years.
- Intervention effect Zinc amino acid complexes, especially zinc methionine, were more effective than zinc sulfate.
- Intervention effect Zinc amino acid complexes increased olive oil L* and b* color values compared with control.
- Intervention effect Zinc amino acid complexes decreased olive oil a* color value compared with control.
- Intervention effect Zinc sulfate had slight or nonsignificant effects on olive oil color.
- Intervention effect Foliar zinc changed the olive oil fatty acid profile.
- Intervention effect Zinc methionine increased monounsaturated fatty acid content more effectively than other zinc sources.
- Recommendation The authors propose zinc amino acid complexes, especially zinc methionine and zinc glycine, for improving olive oil quality and quantity in zinc deficient soils.
