Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Paraquat statistically reduced soybean shoot and root dry weight.
- Intervention effect Paraquat reduced nodule number and development.
- Intervention effect Paraquat negatively affected symbiotic nitrogen fixation.
- Intervention effect At 100 µM paraquat, total nitrogen content fell close to 50%.
- Intervention effect At 100 µM paraquat, fixed nitrogen fell close to 50%.
- Mechanism The authors attribute these effects to impaired nodule functionality and oxidative status.
- Intervention effect Paraquat treated nodules had lower leghaemoglobin content.
- Intervention effect Paraquat treated nodules had higher lipid peroxidation.
