Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect The 0.8-ppmw trifluralin rate increased the number of seminal roots of wheat seedlings.
- Intervention effect The 0.8-ppmw trifluralin rate reduced lateral root production in wheat seedlings.
- Intervention effect The 0.8-ppmw trifluralin rate decreased root extension of wheat seedlings.
- Intervention effect The 0.8-ppmw trifluralin rate caused root tips to swell (club-like appearance) in wheat seedlings.
- Intervention effect The 0.8-ppmw trifluralin rate reduced root dry weights of wheat seedlings.
- Observation Trifluralin-damaged wheat seedlings showed signs of recovery towards the end of the two-week growth period.
- Observation Recovering wheat seedlings showed an increased number of seminal roots towards the end of the two-week growth period.
- Observation Recovering wheat seedlings developed normal root extensions from clubbed root tips.
- Observation Recovering wheat seedlings developed normal lateral root patterns.
- Intervention effect Trifluralin increased percent calcium and magnesium in wheat plants.
- Intervention effect Trifluralin decreased percent nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in wheat plants.
- Intervention effect Nutrient concentrations of wheat seedlings were more affected by trifluralin at 21 days than at 35 days of age.
- Observation Wheat seedlings were able to recover from trifluralin injury.
