“…The total level of micronutrients in the soil is determined by the original geological substrate and subsequent geological and pedogenic regimes [21], but the accumulation of a given element within plants is controlled by complex processes regulated by a network of gene products critical for uptake, binding, transportation, and sequestration [5]. The concentrations of leaf micronutrients: Fe, Zn, B, and Cu were below the sufficiency levels 72, 15 -20, 20 -70, 3 -7 mg·Kg ) in all species except P. sordida, but below the accumulator levels of 1000 mg·kg −1 [32].…”
