“…Second, IDC is primarily an issue of iron availability, not soil level per se. Third, and perhaps the most important is that the economic cost of Fe treatments to control Fe deWciency is very high (Álvarez-Fernández et al 2004). For these reasons, signiWcant eVorts are ongoing to elucidate the plant's responses to iron stress and in planta transport of iron with a long-term goal of developing improved plant genotypes that possess durable tolerance toward IDC, as well as fortifying the iron content of tissue for food and feed end use (Hell and Stephan 2003).…”

“…Due to iron starvation, the quantity and quality of crops are dropping and this would lead to a severe damage to the respective economy. Currently, iron mineral salts are used as shoot spraying, and chelating-iron compounds like Fe-EDTA and Fe-EDDHA are applied as soil drenching (Alvarez-Fernandez et al, 2004). Using these methods to compensating the lack of iron depends on an environmental and host plant condition and it should repeated annually.…”

“…FeSO 4 sprays (0.5%) corrected deficiency symptoms and increased yields by up to 50% in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) cultivars inefficient in Fe utilization under high pH calcareous conditions (Saxena & Sheldrake 1980). Severe Fe deficiency in peas grown in high pH soil was successfully ameliorated by the application of FeSO 4 as foliar spray (Seeliger & Moss 1976;Alvarez-Fernandez et al 2004;Patel et al 2004).…”
