Lime chlorosis on photosynthesis and transpiration of iron-inefficient soybeans

Journal Article · · Commun. Soil Sci. Plant Anal.; (United States)

Iron deficiency in PI54619-5-1 soybeans (Glycine max L.) decreased growth 37 percent and decreased the rate of photosynthesis by 33 percent, but had no influence on the rate of transpiration. In another experiment Fe deficiency resulted in a mild 18 percent decrease in the photosynthetic rate and a slight decrease in the transpiration rate. There were no differences in leaf resistances.
