Abstract

Increased Mg availability was associated with increased tissue Mg concentrations and shoot dry matter productivity in Zea mays. Added lime generally decreased extractable soil Mg, tissue Mg, and shoot dry matter. Applied P reduced 'overliming' stress. Magnesium, P, and Zn were implicated in the nutritional stress associated with lime induced yield depressions. -from Authors
