PLANT NUTRIENTS
3. Essential plant nutrients
The essential nutrient elements required by higher
plants are exclusively of inorganic nature. This
exclusive requirement of higher plants for inorganic
nutrients basically distinguishes these organisms
from man, animals and a. number of
microorganisms which additionally need organic
foodstuffs. For an element to be considered an
essential plant nutrient.
4. Three criteria as proposed by Arnon and Stout (1939)
must be Satisfied. These are :
A deficiency of the element makes it
impossible for the plant to complete its life
cycle.
The deficiency is specific for the element in
question.
The element is directly involved in the
nutrition of the plant as for example as a
constituent of an essential metabolite or
required for the action of an enzyme system.
5. Several terms namely, deficient, insufficient,
toxic and excessive
Deficient. When an essential element is at a low concentration that severely
limits yield and produces more or less distinct deticiency symptoms. Extreme
deficiencies will lead to death of the plant.
Insufficient. When the level of an essential plant nutrient is below that required
for optimum yield or when there is an imbalance with another nutrient
Symptoms of this condition are rarely observed.
Toxic. When the concentration of either essential of other elements is
sufficiently high to inhibit plant growth to a great extent. Severe toxicity will
result in death of plants.
Excessive. When the concentration of an essential plant nutrient is sufficiently
high to result in a corresponding shortage of another nutrient.

Molybdanum
Required for the normal assimillation of nitrogen in plants . An essential components of nitrate reductase as
well as nitrogenase (nitrogen fixation enzyme).

4) Wilt resistant in cotton and mosaic virus resistant
in cotton.
12. Function of Calcium
1) Increasing symbiotic fixation of atmospheric
nitrogen.
2) It increasing availability of molybdenum.
Function of Magnesium
1) It is constitute of chlorophyll
2) Help in the photosynthesis of the
plants.
13. 1) Synthesis of glucosides in mustard oils.
2) Promote to nodule formation.
Function of Sulphur
1) A key role in nitrogen fixation.
2)Help in the photosynthesis.
3)Formation of chlorophyll.
Function of Iron
14. Function of Mangnease
1) Chlorophyll synthesis.
2) Development of chloroplast.
3) Increase availability of P and Ca in plants.
Function of Cooper
1) Chlorophyll formation
2) Electron transport from chlorophyll.
15. Function of Zinc
1) Role in photosynthesis.
2) It regulating of auxin concentration.
3) Flower setting and proper development of fruits.
Function of Molybdenum
1) Synthesis of protein in the plants.
2) Help in nitrogen fixation by rhizobia.
3) Increasing in availability of P and S in soil.
16. Function of Boron
1) Proper development of tissue.
2) Help in maturity .
3) Formation of cell wall.

19. Deficiency symptoms of nutrients
NITROGEN
N deficiency are general
chlorosis of lower leaves
(light green to yellow),
and necrosis of older
leaves
yellow discoloration from
the leaf tip backward in
the form of a “V” is common
20. Phosphorus (P)
turn dark green (both leaves
and stems) and appear stunted .
Older leaves are affected first and
may acquire a purplish
discoloration due to the
accumulation of sugars in P
deficient plants which favor
anthocyanin synthesis
P deficiency in cornLeaves
21. Potassium (K)
reduction in growth rate,
with chlorosis and necrosis
occurring in later stages
K deficiency
Older leaves are
22.
23. Calcium (Ca)
Deficiency Terminal bud
leaf becomes chlorotic white
with base remains green.
.Death of terminal
buds. Deficiency causes
’Blossom end rot’ in Tomato
and Ber and ’Tip hooking
in Cauliflower’
24. Magnesium (Mg)
Deficiency Older leaves will
be yellow between veins
and veins remain green
(Interveinal chlorosis).
Also affects chlorophyll
formation.
25. Sulfur (S)
Deficiency Yellowing of
leave, leaves are paler
than interveinal portion.
Occurrence of ’Downward
cupping of leaves in
Tobacco and Tea.
S deficient wheat plant (left) has light green
leaves and stunted growth as compared to normal
wheat plant (right).
26. Boron
Deficiency Yellowing/ chlorosis
starts from base of terminal bud
leaf and extends to tip results in
appearance of ’Whip like structure’
and become brownish/ blackish brown
Deficiency causes fruit cracking
In litchi’, ’Hen and Chicken
disorder in
Grape’ and ’Heart rot in
Sugarbeet’.
27.
28. Chlorine (Cl)
Deficiency Younger leaves
will be chlorotic and plants
Will easily wilt. For wheat,
a plant disease will infest
the plant when Cl is deficient.
29. Copper (Cu)
Deficiency Leaves including
veins become yellow and
tending towards whiteness.
Occurrence of ’Marginal
leaf burning’. Deficiency Cu deficiency in wheatmelanosis disease in
wheat
Causes ’Dia back and
Little leafdisease in Citrus
30. Iron (Fe)
Deficiency Veins remain
conspicuously green and
other leaf portion turn
yellow and tending towards
whiteness. Interveinal
chlorosis will occur.
Deficiency causes ’Leaf
bleaching in sugarcane and
’Ivory white of paddy’
Iron deficient soybean
31. Manganese (Mn)
Deficiency Interveinal yellowing
of young leaves but not
tending towards whiteness.
Veins remain green. Deficiency
causes ’Marsh disease in Pea’.
34. Zinc (Zn)
Deficiency Upper leaves
will show chlorosis on
midrib. Veins green and
dead spots occur in all
parts of leaf (veins, tips
and margins). Plants appear
bushy due to reduced
internodal elongation.
’White bud of Maize’.is
caused by the deficiency.
