Effects of foliar boron application on seed composition, cell wall boron, and seed δ 15N and δ 13C isotopes in water-stressed soybean plants

Effects of foliar boron application on seed composition, cell wall boron, and seed δ 15N and δ 13C isotopes in water-stressed soybean plants

Limited information is available on the effects of foliar boron (B) application on soybean seed composition. The objective of this research was to investigate the effects of foliar B on seed composition (protein, oil, fatty acids, and sugars). Our hypothesis was that since B is involved in nitrogen...
