“…The relationship'between eli concentration In the-' grain and grain size is of interest in that the Cu levels are above the critical concentration for deficiency of 2.5 ppm (King & Alston 1975). Deficiency of Cu causes decreased grain size with shrivelled and blackened grains (Nambiar 1976).…”

The relationship between the mineral composition of grain and its baking quality was examined in 35 samples of wheat. Positive relationships were found between bake score and the nitrogen (N) and sulphur concentrations in the grain, and negative relationships with potassium (K) and molybdenum. Phosphorus and magnesium also gave significant, though weak, negative relationships. These individual nutrient relationships were unaffected by other elements, except for a significant N X K interaction. Bake score was also negatively associated with grain weight. Grain weight was positively associated with the copper concentration in the grain and this in tum was negatively related to the N levels. Calcium and sodium levels showed little variation. These results indicate that some of the field variation in baking quality of wheat can be related to several nutrients, and further research is needed to assess whether these nutrient relationships can be manipulated to advantage in the field.

“…Manganese deficiency may also occur in the soils of India, Syria, and Pakistan (Table 7.8). In China, Ca(NO 3 ) 2 -extractable Cu in these soils were reported in the range of 0.4-0.8, 0.1-0.2 and 0.005-0.015 mg/kg, respectively (King and Alston, 1975).…”

“…Due to low recovery efficiency of applied Cu, the tissue concentrations were not influenced by fertilization. Critical whole plant Cu concentration of less than 2 mg kg −1 50 , 2.5 to 3.0 mg kg −1 51 and 5 mg kg −1 49 , 52 are reported as indicators of potential deficiency in wheat. However, the whole plant Cu concentration is often weakly correlated to grain and straw biomass yield responses to fertilization 34 , 50 .…”

A polyhouse study was conducted to evaluate the relative effectiveness of different micronutrient fertilizer formulation and application methods on wheat, pea and canola, as indicated by yield response and fate of micronutrients in contrasting mineral soils. The underlying factors controlling micronutrient bioavailability in a soil–plant system were examined using chemical and spectroscopic speciation techniques. Application of Cu significantly improved grain and straw biomass yields of wheat on two of the five soils (Ukalta and Sceptre), of which the Ukalta soil was critically Cu deficient according to soil extraction with DTPA. The deficiency problem was corrected by either soil or foliar application of Cu fertilizers. There were no significant yield responses of pea to Zn fertilization on any of the five soils. For canola, soil placement of boric acid was effective in correcting the deficiency problem in Whitefox soil, while foliar application was not. Soil extractable Cu, Zn, and B concentration in post-harvest soils were increased with soil placement of fertilizers, indicating that following crops in rotation could benefit from this application method. The chemical and XANES spectroscopic speciation indicates that carbonate associated is the dominant form of Cu and Zn in prairie soils, where chemisorption to carbonates is likely the major process that determines the fate of added Cu and Zn fertilizer.
