Micronutrient Toxicity in Seed Geranium (Pelargonium × hortorum Bailey)

Abstract: Seed geranium (Pelargonium × hortorum) micronutrient toxicity symptoms were induced by applying elevated levels of B, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, and Zn in fertilizer solution. Beginning at the 3-4 true leaf stage, seedling plants established in 11-cm (0.67-liter) pots containing peat-lite growing medium were fertilized at each irrigation for 5 weeks with solutions containing 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 mm plus the standard concentration of each micronutrient.

“…Arunachalam et al [65], who reported decreases in the chlorophyll content as a consequence of increasing Fe concentrations, also confirmed this process. Conversely, Lee et al [60] reported no visible toxicity symptoms regarding zonal geranium growth while using ferrous sulfate.…”

“…This physiopathy is particularly frequent in geranium due to the pH status of the growth media. The pH level can indeed affect the capability of plants to uptake nutrients, thus leading to nutrient deficiency or toxicity [57][58][59][60][61][62]. An analysis of the nutrient contents in the leaves of the symptomatic plants (Table 3) indicated a high concentration of Fe and Mn, as compared to those that are found in the leaves cultivated using SDS and CS.…”

“…Zn toxicity also affects both roots and shoots by restricting their development [52]. In younger leaves, the visible symptoms of Zn toxicity is the appearance of a purplish-red color [53]. Table 2 represents the bioaccumulation of roots, shoots, and transfer factor values in selected plant species collected from CMIS1, CMIS2, and CMIS3 sites.…”

“…Additionally, excessive zinc can cause plant shoots to be deficient in copper and manganese. The emergence of a purplish red color in leaves, which is attributed to phosphorus insufficiency, is another typical result of Zn toxicity (Lee et al, 1996).…”
