Effects of combined application of phosphorus and zinc on growth and physiological characteristics of apple rootstock M9-T337 seedlings (Malus domestica Borkh.)
Based on the comprehensive ranking from principal component analysis, the combination of HP ( 4 mmol·L<sup>-1</sup>) and LZn (0.5 µmol·L<sup>-1</sup>) was found to be the most effective in enhancing the antioxidant capacity, sugar accumulation, osmotic regulation ability, photosynthetic capacity, endogenous hormone levels, as well as P and Zn nutrient absorption and utilization in M9-T337 seedlings.
