Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect The highly calcareous-soil population yielded better in calcareous than noncalcareous soils.
- Observation The noncalcareous-soil population showed the reverse yield response.
- Observation The moderately calcareous-soil population showed an intermediate response.
- Observation The three populations differed significantly in mineral uptake responses.
- Association Calcium uptake was higher in plants from noncalcareous soils than in those from calcareous soils.
- Observation In extremely calcareous soil, the calcium-uptake difference reversed.
- Association Ash content generally increased with soil calcium level.
- Association Calcium, potassium and magnesium uptake generally increased with soil calcium.
- Observation Calcium uptake declined in highly calcareous soils for moderately calcareous and noncalcareous populations.
- Observation Magnesium uptake declined in highly calcareous soils for the noncalcareous-soil population.
- Observation At least three edaphic ecotypes were distinguished within the species.
