| Title : | GENOTYPE SPECIFICITY OF WINTER WHEAT IN ZINC AND COOPER ACCUMULATION IN GRAIN |
| Abstract : | To ensure safe food production, cultivar specificity of winter wheat with respect to mineral nutrition was studied in order to determine genotypic differences in the accumulation of certain microelements (Zn and Cu). Soil properties, plant species and genotypes were found to be major factors affecting the uptake of microelements by wheat plants. NPK and lime treatments resulted in a decrease in Zn content, but the decrease was not below the concentrations that would make the plants suffer from nutrient deficiencies. Conversely, as regards Cu in NPK + CaCO3 and NPK + CaCO3 + manure treatments, Cu deficiency can lead to certain morphological and anatomical changes in some cultivars. |
