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 ...
In this work, the information available on the mechanisms of response to iron chlorosis that is needed for the characterization and selection of plants tolerant to iron deficiency was presented. The behaviour of plants faced with iron deficiency, and the physiological and biochemical processes associated with each adaptation mechanism, both in shoots and roots, were described. Finally, the degree of tolerance o...
