Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association Wheat dry matter yield increased with crop age.
- Association Dry matter yield ranked Inceptisol, Vertisol, then Alfisol.
- Intervention effect Potassium deficiency decreased total root length in later growth stages, especially in Vertisol and Alfisol.
- Association Wheat potassium concentration was lower in Alfisol than in Vertisol and Inceptisol.
- Association Potassium uptake was lower in Alfisol than in Vertisol and Inceptisol.
- Observation Potassium uptake increased sharply up to 69 days after germination in fertilized soils.
- Observation The rate of potassium accumulation decreased after 69 days in fertilized soils.
