Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Extractable copper rose with CuNP dose, particularly in the lower organic matter soil.
- Intervention effect CuNPs reduced shoot biomass at higher doses in the higher organic matter soil.
- Intervention effect CuNPs reduced root biomass at higher doses in the higher organic matter soil.
- Intervention effect eCuNPs produced variable biomass responses, including higher values in some cases.
- Observation Biomass stayed low across treatments in the more limiting soil.
- Observation Copper accumulated mainly in roots.
- Observation Foliar copper remained low and near typical lettuce reference values.
- Recommendation The authors propose alginate encapsulation to improve CuNP application safety in higher organic matter soils.
