The role of nutrients in plant growth and physiology is dealt in this chapter in its maximum possible extent including the details on essential nutrients, their physiological roles, uptake and assimilation, nutritional disorders, the availability ofrients in soil and their movement to plant roots and availability to plants by different modes of absorption.
Mineral Nutrition of Plants
- Environmental Science
- 2015
In this chapter, a brief overview of the history of plant mineral nutrition is provided. Soil serves as the source of nutrient elements, and so the availability of nutrients is governed by soil…
Effect of Suboptimal Nutritional Status on Mineral Uptake and Carbohydrate Metabolism in Tomato Plants
- Environmental Science
- 2013
A suitable supply of mineral elements into shoot via a root system from growth media makes plants favorable growth and yield. The shortage or surplus of minerals directly affects overall…
