Detailed explanation-1: -Working on a manuscript? Boron (B), Molybdenum (Mo) and Zinc (Zn) are three most deficient micronutrients in acidic soils of India, with their deficiency reported in 45, 46 and 31 % of the agricultural soils, respectively [1].
Detailed explanation-2: -Molybdenum (Mo) is the only metallic micronutrient that is less available on low pH soils. Mo is essential for nitrogen fixation by legumes and for nitrate conversion to amino acids.
Detailed explanation-3: -Zinc is an essential micronutrient for human metabolism that catalyzes more than 100 enzymes, facilitates protein folding, and helps regulate gene expression. Patients with malnutrition, alcoholism, inflammatory bowel disease, and malabsorption syndromes are at an increased risk of zinc deficiency.
Detailed explanation-4: -There are 7 essential plant nutrient elements defined as micronutrients [boron (B), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), chlorine (Cl)].
Detailed explanation-5: -Iron, cobalt, chromium, iodine, copper, zinc, molybdenum are some of the micronutrients. Deficiency of any of the nutrients affects growth and development.
