Ques. 1AIPMT 2000

When the plants are grown in magnesium deficient but urea rich soil, the symptoms expressed are

  1. yellowish leaves
  2. colourless petiole
  3. dark green leaves
  4. shoot apex dies

Answer

(1) yellowish leaves

Solution

∵ Magnesium is a constituent of chlorophyll; without it chlorophyll cannot be formed even when nitrogen (urea) is plentiful.

As per NCERT, deficiency of N, K, Mg, S, Fe, Mn, Zn and Mo causes chlorosis (loss of chlorophyll, yellowing of leaves).

∴ The leaves turn yellowish.
