e0“agronomic efficiency (AE) of peanut grown in sandy soil”
e2“Zinc significantly affected shoot dry weight, with the highest biomass observed in the control treatment (18.52 g pot−1), but had limited influence on reproductive and yield traits.”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Zinc fertilization had limited influence on peanut reproductive and yield traits.
- Intervention effect Boron significantly enhanced peanut pod- and seed-related parameters.
- Intervention effect Boron increased total seed weight of peanut by 46–51%.
- Intervention effect The highest mean peanut yield was recorded at 0.006–0.017 g B pot−1.
- Observation Principal component analysis explained 81.4% of total variance in peanut yield traits.
- Association Pod number and seed-filling traits were the primary contributors to peanut yield variation.
- Intervention effect Zinc agronomic efficiency was negative at all rates.
- Observation Boron agronomic efficiency reached 513.3 g seed increase g−1 B at 0.006 g B pot−1.
- Observation Boron agronomic efficiency remained positive at 0.017 g B pot−1.
- Association Boron availability was likely a more important constraint on peanut than zinc in this sandy soil.
