Abstract
Factors which affect the iron nutrition of plants are discussed. Phosphate plays an important role in determining the form of iron, whether ferric or ferrous, within the tissues. The ratio of total phosphorus to total iron can be used as an index of iron status. It is, however, the form of nitrogen, whether as the ammonium or nitrate ion which determines the nutrient balances prevailing.Keywords
