Question

what will happen if we donot provide micronutrients to the plants

Open in App
Solution

Most of the micronutrients have been found to be essential for the plant. E.g. Boron has a role in cell wall formation while copper is necessary for carbohydrate and nitrogen metabolism. If a plant lacks a micronutrient like copper, then this will lead to retarded growth of the plant. Lack of iron leads to chlorosis of the plant (leaf yellowing due to lack of chlorophyll).
