Potassium applied under drought improves physiological and nutrient uptake performances of wheat (Triticum Aestivun L.)

The physiological and nutrient uptake performance of two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars (Lasani-2008 and Auqab-2000) to foliar application of 1% potassium (K) at three different growth stages (tillering, flower initiation and grain filling) was investigated under water limited environment in...
