Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Control stem rot incidence ranged from 11.7 to 52.0%.
- Intervention effect Calcium compounds at 4 and 10 mM significantly suppressed disease incidence.
- Intervention effect Calcium compounds delayed disease onset.
- Intervention effect Calcium formate was more effective than calcium nitrate for reducing disease incidence.
- Intervention effect Calcium amendments increased height, nodes and pods in most cases.
- Intervention effect Calcium amendments reduced low-quality seeds in most cases.
- Intervention effect Calcium treated soybean accumulated more calcium crystals around cambium and xylem.
- Observation Mycelial penetration was inhibited at calcium crystal accumulation sites.
- Mechanism Authors infer calcium-rich areas resist pathogen invasion and crystals support long-term resistance.
