1. Effect of Foliar Zinc Application on Durum and Spring Wheat Grain Yield and QualityZinc (Zn) deficiency represents a common micronutrient deficiency in human populations, especially in regions of the world where staple food crops are the main source of daily calorie intake. Micronutrients like Zn also plays an important role in growth and development of plant thereby affecting crop yield and quality. A two-year field trial was conducted at Sidney, Montana, to investigate the effect of foliar application of Zn on yield and grain quality of spring wheat. Zinc treatment included... F. Etemadi, R.

2. Optimization of Zinc Fertilizer in CottonSemi-arid environments often face many weather-related challenges while overcoming the issues associated with an elevated soil pH (> 7.5). Zinc availability can become more limited as soil pH increases, possibly reducing cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) production. Zinc is an essential micronutrient for cotton and is important from the seedling stage to boll and fiber formation. Because of the many reactions reducing zinc availability in soil, fertilizer source, and application time and method are... K. Lewis, J. Alford |
