Plant Diseases: Ion Deficiencies in Plants 馃尡 GCSE Biology Learning & Revision
REVISE GCSE Biology - A podcast by Seneca Learning - Un p贸dcast de Seneca Learning

In this episode, we will discuss ion deficiencies in plants.
Healthy plant development relies on mineral ions extracted from the soil.聽A lack of these ions, particularly magnesium and nitrates, leads to deficiency disorders.聽
Magnesium is essential for chlorophyll production; its absence causes chlorosis, impairing photosynthesis and glucose creation.聽Nitrates are required for protein production, and deficiency results in stunted plant growth.聽
Ultimately, poor soil quality is the root cause of ion deficiencies and subsequent plant health issues.
