Figure 2

Phosphorus (P) concentration in diagnostic leaf (fifth leaf from the top) (A), zinc (Zn) concentration (B), P content in shoot (C), Zn content in shoot (D), P content in root (E) and Zn content in root (F) of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) plants grown in nutrient solution containing different concentrations P and Zn for 90 days. Low P = 0.5 mM; Adequate P = 4 mM; High P = 8 mM; Low Zn = 0.5 µM; Adequate Zn = 4 µM; High Zn = 8 µM. Different letters indicate significant differences for each dependent variable separately (Tukey test at P ≤ 0.05; n = 4). (Filled Square) Sufficiency rage for cotton suggested by Serra et al. (2012). Sigma Plot 11 software (SYSTAT, San Jose, CA, USA) was used to display data.
