Micro
elements are the items needed in the least amount of plants. Although only
absorbed in small amounts, but it is very important to support the success of
processes in plants. Without micro elements, adenium does not appear. Interest
will be weak, etc. Micro-elements that are: boron, iron, copper, manganese,
zinc, and molybdenum.
1.
Boron (B) Boron
is closely related to the process of formation, the Division and
differentiation, and cell division. This is related to his role in the
synthetic RNA, base material forming cells. Boron is transported from the roots
to the plant through xylem vessels heading. In the soil boron available in
limited quantities and easily leached. Boron deficiency is most commonly found in
adenium. Its leaves are similar to variegates. a) Lack of darker-colored Leaves
than normal leaves, thick, and shrinking. b) Excess ends of the leaves yellow
and suffered necrosis
2.
Copper (Cu)
copper activator is an important function and brings some enzymes. He also
helped smooth the process of photosynthesis. Composing chlorophyll, and plays a
role in the reproduction. a deficiency of Green Leaves) bluish leaves, buds
shrink and grow small, flower growth stunted. b) Excess Plants grow pheasant,
branching is limited, the formation of stunted roots, thickened roots and dark
colored.
3.
Zinc (Zn) is
almost similar to that of Mn and Mg, the Stinger was instrumental in the
formation of chlorophyll, enzyme activator and help the process of
photosynthesis. A deficiency usually occurs on the media which have long used.
a) Shortage of slow growth, the distance between the short book, dwarf leaf, or
rolled on one side then followed with the loss. Would fruit yellowing, open,
and eventually fall. Any fruit would be more limp and so that the fruit should
have a straight bending. b) Excess of excess zinc does not show the real
impact.
4.
Iron (fe) iron
plays a role in the process of the formation of the protein, as a catalyst for
the formation of chlorophyll. Iron acts as an electron carrier in the process
of fotosintetis and respiration, as well as being the activator of several
enzymes. This item is not easy to move so that if there is a shortage of hard
repaired. Fe most often contradictory or antagonistic with other
micro-elements. To reduce the effect of the Fe is often wrapped with either a
chelate (chelate) such as EDTA (Ethylene Diamine Tetra-acetic Acid). EDTA is a
component of the nonprofit organic stabilizing metal ions. The presence of EDTA
Fe antagonist properties then at high pH decreases considerably. On the market
are found under the brand name Fe-EDTA. a deficiency of Iron Deficiency) are
indicated with symptoms of choruses or yellowing leaves and necrosis. Young
leaves appear white due to lack of chlorophyll. In addition occur because of
damage to the roots. If adenium issued from within will be seen bits and pieces
of dead roots. b) Excess grant of fertilizer with high Fe content causes the
necrosis is characterized by the emergence of black spots on the leaves.
5.
Molybdenum (Mo)
Mo serving as a carrier of electrons to convert nitrates into enzymes. This
element also plays a role in nitrogen fixation. a) Deficiency is indicated by
the appearance of choruses on older leaves, then extends to young leaves b)
Excess Surplus does not show symptoms that are real on adenium.
6.
Manganese (Mn)
a). The excess Manganese is a required element of micro amounts of plants that
is not too much. Manganese was instrumental in the synthesis of chlorophyll in
addition acts as a Coenzyme, as an activator of several enzymes in respiration,
nitrogen metabolism and reactions of photosynthesis. Manganese is also needed
to nitrate reeducates activating so that plants that are experiencing a
shortage of manganese source requires N in the form of NH4 +. The role of
manganese in photosynthesis related to release of electrons from the water in
the solution into hydrogen and oxygen. The function of nutrient elements of
manganese (Mn) for plants is: a. Required by plants for the formation of
protein and vitamin b. vitamin C especially played an important role in
maintaining the condition of the green leaves on the old leaves c. acts as
enzyme activators peroxidase and as various enzymes d. acts as an important
component for the successful process of assimilation of Mn required in lettuce
cotyledon culture to spur the growth of the number of shoots produced. MN in
high levels can split the tomato root culture in Mo. MN can replace the
function of Mg in several enzyme systems such as evidenced by Hewitt in 1948.
b). nutrient Deficiency, Deficiency or a deficiency of other nutrient elements
said. can cause abnormal growth of plants can be caused by a deficiency of one
or more of the nutrient elements, distractions can be a symptom of a specific
visual.
