Iron chlorosis in the Ebro River basin, Spain

Abstract: Iron chlorosis is a major problem in the Ebro river basin, a large agricultural area in northeastern Spain. Crops affected by iron chlorosis in this area are mainly fruit tree species, such as pear, peach, apple, apricot, plum, cherry and almond, growing in irrigated areas. The etiology and symptoms of iron chlorosis in these fruit tree crops are described, together with the procedures used for diagnosis. The current practices which are being used in Spain for the prevention and correction of iron chlorosis ar… Show more

“…Iron chlorosis is a major problem of peach trees (Sanz et al 1992), especially when they are grown in alkaline and calcareous soils (Basar 2000;Tagliavini, Marangoni 2002;Toselli et al 1997), common in the fruit growing regions of Greece. It results in crop losses; in severe cases it can cause branch dieback or even entire tree killing.…”

“…A great deal of researches have been conducted over the past 40 years to determine the most effective and economical methods of correcting iron chlorosis in commercial crops (Mortvedt 1991;Sanz et al 1992). Many Fe sources and methods of application have been tested during this time (Mortvedt 1991).…”

“…En este momento, España es el mayor consumidor europeo de estos fertilizantes, estimándose su consumo anual en unas 3.000 tm. El gasto en tratamientos correctores de carencia de Fe puede suponer hasta el 50% del coste anual de fertilizantes de una explotación agrícola (Sanz et al, 1992 Para comprender y mejorar el control de esta carencia en los cítricos, es fundamental identificar los componentes involucrados en la absorción del hierro, profundizar en los mecanismos bioquímicos y genéticos que se activan, así como en la regulación de las señales implicadas en la homeostasis del Fe.…”

“…Además, el Fe también es responsable de la morfología, estructura y mantenimiento de los cloroplastos, aunque no parece que afecte al número de éstos por unidad de hoja (Terry y Abadía, 1986;Abadía, 1992;. La deficiencia de hierro provoca una drástica reducción del número de ribosomas, con lo cual disminuye la síntesis de proteínas, con el consiguiente aumento de la concentración de aminoácidos en las hojas cloróticas.…”
