- Intervention effect At 2 mM Al, citric acid increased epicotyl length, seedling height and root length by 11–26%.
- Intervention effect At 2 mM Al, citric acid raised fresh weight by 8%.
- Intervention effect At 2 mM Al, citric acid significantly lowered chlorophyll content by 16%.
- Intervention effect At 5 mM Al, citric acid increased epicotyl length, seedling height and root length by 19–60%.
- Intervention effect At 5 mM Al, citric acid increased fresh weight by 12%.
