Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Succinate pretreatment increased pea root, stem and leaf dry weight relative to zinc alone.
- Intervention effect Increasing zinc supply decreased root calcium, magnesium and phosphorus concentrations.
- Intervention effect Increasing zinc supply increased stem and leaf calcium and nitrogen.
- Association Zinc amounts increased in pea roots, stems and leaves with zinc rate.
- Intervention effect Succinate increased phosphorus in pea roots.
- Intervention effect Succinate did not affect calcium, nitrogen and magnesium contents in zinc-treated peas.
- Observation After succinate treatment most zinc uptake was retained in pea roots.
- Mechanism The authors attribute succinate-associated growth improvement to lower zinc translocation into leaves and stems and greater root zinc accumulation.
- Mechanism The authors suggest organic anion complexing of zinc in roots reduced translocation to aboveground pea parts.
