Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Zinc treatments reduced fenugreek shoot dry weight by 56% to 75% versus control.
- Intervention effect Zinc treatments reduced fenugreek root dry weight by 65% to 90% versus control.
- Intervention effect High zinc significantly reduced fenugreek photosynthetic parameters.
- Observation CO2 assimilation was lower at 4 mM Zn, at 0.5 μmol CO2, m-2·s-1.
- Intervention effect Shoot zinc concentration was around twice control under 1, 2 and 3 mM Zn.
- Intervention effect Shoot zinc concentration was about fourfold control at 4 mM Zn.
- Association Root zinc content progressively increased with zinc treatment.
- Intervention effect Increasing zinc significantly decreased shoot phosphorus concentration.
- Observation Fenugreek was mainly affected by zinc excess above 1 mM ZnSO4.
- Observation Fenugreek showed different adaptation strategies at the highest zinc concentration.
