Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Zinc application increased wheat growth and yield.
- Intervention effect Zinc fertilisation increased wheat grain yield.
- Intervention effect Zinc application enhanced wheat grain yield by a factor of 6-8 in very low-yield areas.
- Observation Total soil zinc was fairly high.
- Observation Plant available soil zinc was extremely low.
- Intervention effect Wheat, especially durum wheat, responded significantly to zinc application below the stated soil zinc threshold.
- Association Wheat was more sensitive to zinc deficiency under rainfed than irrigated conditions.
- Association High seed zinc concentration was associated with increased seedling vigour.
- Association High seed zinc concentration was associated with increased pathogen resistance.
- Intervention effect Enhancing seed zinc concentration reduced seeding rate.
- Intervention effect Zinc fertilisation increased grain zinc concentration.
