Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Arsenate at 5 mg As kg-1 soil had a somewhat stimulatory effect on growth and on soluble sugar and soluble protein biosynthesis at 30 days.
- Intervention effect At later growth stages arsenate was obstructive for fresh and dry shoot weights and root weights.
- Intervention effect Fresh and dry leaf weights and leaf area decreased gradually with increasing arsenic concentrations.
- Intervention effect Arsenic had a significant adverse effect on leaf length and stem diameter of chilli.
- Association Duration of exposure to arsenate stress was negatively correlated with partitioning of dry matter accumulation.
- Intervention effect The inhibitory effect of arsenate was less pronounced at the beginning but increased with time.
- Intervention effect Manganese (1 ppm) and phosphate (13 mg kg-1 soil), separately and together, significantly and helpfully altered all growth and biochemical characteristics tested relative to arsenate alone.
- Intervention effect Better growth and yield were observed with manganese and phosphate application in chilli seedlings, reducing arsenic hazards in arsenic-infested soils.
