Abstract

Chlorosis, which is associated with a reduction in the chlorophyll content of leaves, is a major problem in the growing of deciduous fruit trees and some field crops on Western soils (16). For the deciduous fruit and field crops the predominant chlorosis pattern is the iron deficiency type which on Western soils is associated with high bicarbonate concentration in the soil.
