Bare-root transplants of strawberry (Fragaria ananassa Duch. cv. ‘Selva’) were transferred to nutrient solutions with or without iron (Fe). After six weeks of growth, plants grown in solution lacking Fe were chlorotic and showed morphological changes in roots typical of Fe deficiency. Subsequently, four treatments were applied for nine days: plants grown in continued absence of Fe (Fe0); plants grown in continu...
Iron (Fe) is abundant in soils and although it is required in small amounts by plants the incidence of iron chlorosis (Fe deficiency) is very common in a number of crops and requires massive soil application of Fe-chelates to correct it. In this work, we present the most important results obtained in several experiments conducted with strawberry to study the physiological and biochemical response mechanisms to ...
