Effects of phosphate on wheat growth in high-boron soil

In order to search out a way to reducing the boron toxicity,effects of phosphate on wheat growth in boron toxicity soil have been studied.It is found that P can reduce the boron toxic symptom of wheat,percentage of yellow leaf decreases from 9.95% to 7.60%,and promote the growth of wheat roots and shoots by 44.9% and 11.72% respectively, when boron concentration reaches to 50mg/kg. Furthermore,deep roots below 30cm soil are increased by 2.1% which promotes wheat to better use the water and nutrition in deep soil.
