Other claims from this paper (17)
- Intervention effect Sulphur alone decreased soil pH.
- Intervention effect Increasing sulphur with zinc increased soil EC.
- Intervention effect Sulphur alone increased straw S concentration.
- Intervention effect At 250 mg S/kg soil, straw S concentration rose by 28.13% relative to 0 mg S/kg.
- Intervention effect Sulphur and zinc did not significantly change grain S and Fe concentrations.
- Intervention effect Sulphur and zinc did not significantly change straw Zn concentration.
- Intervention effect Sulphur and zinc did not significantly change straw and grain N concentrations.
- Intervention effect Sulphur and zinc did not significantly change N:S ratios.
- Intervention effect Sulphur with zinc significantly increased grain Zn concentration.
- Intervention effect Zinc treatment significantly reduced straw Fe concentration.
- Intervention effect Sulphur alone significantly increased straw dry weight, from 2.53 to 3.86%.
- Intervention effect Zinc alone significantly decreased grain dry weight by 12.18%.
- Intervention effect Increasing zinc raised grain zinc concentration by 25%.
- Recommendation Applying sulphur and zinc could be a good approach for the nutrition of wheat plants.
- Intervention effect Sulphur applications raised generated salinity, which may cause salinity problems for plants.
- Recommendation With high sulphur application an N:S imbalance should be considered.
- Recommendation Soil electrical conductivity, pH, texture, CaCO3, organic matter, sulphur and nitrogen levels should be considered before recommending sulphur and zinc application to soils.
