Plant genotype differences in the uptake, translocation, accumulation, and use of mineral elements required for plant growth

  • Chapter
Genetic Aspects of Plant Nutrition

Part of the book series: Developments in Plant and Soil Sciences ((DPSS,volume 8))

Abstract

Plant genotypes differ in their uptake, translocation, accumulation, and use of mineral elements. Examples of genotype differences to iron, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, manganese, boron, copper, zinc, and molybdenum are discussed. Current knowledge is sufficient to indicate that many crop plants can be improved for the efficient use of mineral elements and better adaptation to mineral stress conditions.
