  2. Boron deficiency (plant disorder) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boron_deficiency_(plant...

    An adequate amount of boron in the soil is 12 mg/kg. If the boron content of the soil drops below 0.14 mg/kg then boron deficiency is likely to be observed. Boron deficiency is also observed in basic soils with a high pH because in basic conditions boric acid exists in an undissociated form which the plant is unable to absorb. [5]

  3. Calcium deficiency (plant disorder) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_deficiency_(plant...

    Plants are susceptible to such localized calcium deficiencies in low or non-transpiring tissues because calcium is not transported in the phloem. [1] This may be due to water shortages, which slow the transportation of calcium to the plant, poor uptake of calcium through the stem, [2] or too much nitrogen in the soil. [3]

  4. Iron deficiency (plant disorder) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_deficiency_(plant...

    Iron deficiency can be avoided by choosing appropriate soil for the growing conditions (e.g., avoid growing acid loving plants on lime soils), or by adding well-rotted manure or compost. If iron deficit chlorosis is suspected then check the pH of the soil with an appropriate test kit or instrument. Take a soil sample at surface and at depth.

  5. Phosphorus deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_deficiency

    At this range of acidity the likeliness of phosphorus uptake is increased and the likeliness of phosphorus deficiency is decreased. Another part of prevention and treatment of phosphorus is the plant's disposition to absorb nutrients. Plant species and different plants within a species react differently to low levels of phosphorus in soil.

  6. Potassium deficiency (plants) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_deficiency_(plants)

    Specific symptoms for each of these plants are as follows: [4] In potatoes, tuber size is much reduced and crop yield is low. The leaves of the plant appear dull and are often blue-green in color with interveinal chlorosis. Leaves will also develop small, dark brown spots on the undersides and a bronzed appearance on the upper surfaces.

  9. Ripening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripening

    Acids are broken down in ripening fruits [12] and this contributes to the sweeter rather than sharp tastes associated with unripe fruits. In some fruits such as guava, there is a steady decrease in vitamin C as the fruit ripens. [13] This is mainly as a result of the general decrease in acid content that occurs when a fruit ripens. [9]
