“…In numerous classical studies, increased Mn availability induced Fe deficiency symptoms, irrespective of whether plants were grown in the field or on standard growth medium (Gile, 1916;Somers and Shive, 1942;Twyman, 1946;Hewitt, 1948;Sideris and Young, 1949). The negative interaction between Fe and Mn has been explained by their similar solubility characteristics in soil and by competition for uptake or translocation (Marschner, 2012).…”

“…Total nitrogen was also determined in the leaf dry matter of some samples, the results being given in Table I only plants grown with critical levels of the trace elements could be analysed because of the amount of analytical work involved. The recognized effects of excessive concentrations of trace elements on plants are the production of (a) chlorosis (due to induced iron deficiency) and (b) symptoms specific to the element involved (Gile, 1916;Wallace & Hewitt, 1946;Hewitt, 1946Hewitt, , 1947Hewitt, , 1948aMillikan, 1947aMillikan, , 6 , 1948Morris &Pierre, 1949;Nicholas, 1950;Vergnano & Hunter, 1953). This distinction has been observed in the tables given below, in which the relative intensities of chlorosis and specific symptoms are recorded.…”

Excessive amounts of nickel, cobalt, chromium, copper, zinc, manganese, molybdenum and aluminium in nutrient solutions supplied to oat plants in sand culture produce (a) chlorosis and (b) other symptoms specific to the element involved. The specific symptoms are distinct for each metal, although those of cobalt and nickel might be confused.T h e toxic effects of nickel, cobalt, copper, zinc, manganese and molybdenum are associated with high concentrations of the element in the leaf tissue, but this is not always so with chromium and aluminium.The toxic effects of nickel, chromium, copper and molybdenum are associated with a reduced nitrogen content of the plant. Nickel, cobalt, chromium, zinc and manganese increase the concentration of phosphorus in the tissue whilst aluminium decreases it, probably to a deficiency level.Aluminium reduces the intensity of toxic symptoms produced by nickel-probably by reducing the uptake of nickel and phosphorus. Copper effectively reduces the leaf necrosis produced by nickel, but not the nickel content of the leaf tissue; it is suggested that one factor in nickel toxicity may be inhibition of one or more functions of copper. The other elements slightly increase chlorosis and some increase necrosis.T h e order of activitjl of the elements in producing chlorosis is found to be Ni > Cu > Co > Cr > Zn > Mo > Mn. This order, which is related to that giving yield reduction and is similar to the order of stability of metal complexes, is discussed in relation to induced iron deficiency.

“…KELLEY (30), discussing pineapple chlorosis, states that "yellow pineapples from soils containing a high percentage of manganese yielded poorly, had lower amounts of starch and chlorophyll but the xanthophyll content was the same in both chlorotic and green leaves." GILE (16) was of the opinion that manganese chlorosis of pineapples in Hawaii was due, in part, to iron deficiency in the plant, induced by manganese, while the lime-induced chlorosis in Puerto Rico was the lack of iron in the plant due to calcium carbonate diminishing the availability of iron in the soil. plant per crock, were aerated continuously and changed at three-week intervals.…”
