Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Soil DTPA-Zn increased significantly with Zn application rates in wheat soil.
- Intervention effect Soil Zn application did not affect wheat grain yield.
- Intervention effect Soil Zn application increased wheat grain Zn concentration by 32% in the first season.
- Intervention effect Soil Zn application increased wheat grain Zn concentration by 44% in the second season.
- Association Maximum grain Zn concentration of wheat in the first season was 19.8 mg·kg-1, lower than the recommended Zn level.
- Observation Total Zn utilization efficiency by wheat was less than 1%.
- Recommendation Applying Zn directly to soil is not an option to improve Zn nutrition of wheat in the dryland area of northwestern China.
