Effect
No effect on produce quality
No effect on phosphorous P use efficiency
ROOTS treated Blue Vantage Cabbage grown in a very P rich soil with extra P fertilisation didn't have a significant higher yield (-1.1 % head yield and -2.4 % less ton/acre) or significant differences in leaf nutrient concentrations (+0.7 % P in leaves) compared to the untreated control plants. ROOTS treated Blue Vantage Cabbage grown in the same soil without extra P fertilisation didn't have a significant higher yield (+ 13.8 % head yield and 1 % less ton/acre) or significant differences in leaf nutrient concentrations (- 1.9 % less P in leaves) compared to the untreated control grown in the same conditions.
