Zinc and its importance for human health: An integrative review (2013, background): “8-fold higher than those of wheat under mono-cropping.[108] In many”
Zinc nutrition in wheat-based cropping systems (2017, background): “Zuo and Zhang (2009) found that intercropping gramineous crops with dicot plants for Zn biofortification is a sustainable, effective and practical practice in developing countries, as it benefits both dicot and gramineous plants for better Zn uptake.”
Soil and crop management strategies to prevent iron deficiency in crops (2011, background): “The concept of biofortification is attractive not only for improving crop growing conditions, such as mineral fertilization and water management, but also for exploiting the plant’s potentials for micronutrient mobilization and utilization through breeding, transgenic approaches and crop management ”
Micronutrient-efficient genotypes for crop yield and nutritional quality in sustainable agriculture. A review (2011, background): “A reasonable intercropping system of nutrient efficient species should be considered to prevent or mitigate iron and zinc deficiency of plants in agricultural practice (Zuo and Zhang, 2009).”
