WHEAT GROWTH AND PHYTOAVAILABILITY OF COPPER AND ZINC AS AFFECTED BY SOIL TEXTURE IN SALINE-SODIC CONDITIONS
Abstract
Nutrient disorders in saline-sodic soils can adversely affect crop growth. In order to evaluate the growth response of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) to Cu and Zn and the phytoavailability of these essential elements, a pot experiment was conducted in three different textured saline-sodic soils [sandy loam (SL), sandy clay loam (SCL) and clay (C)] having an ECe 8.63, 8.80, 8.98 dS m–1 and SAR 21.66
