Defoliation in Perennial Plants: Predictable and Surprising Results in Senna spp.
Plants, 2023 When some plants are defoliated, they may suffer by reaching a smaller final size than if they had not been damaged. Other plants may compensate for damage, ending up the same size as if they had not been damaged. Still, others may overcompensate, ending

Mineral Particles in Foliar Fertilizer Formulations Can Improve the Rate of Foliar Uptake
Plants, 2023 The application of foliar sprays of suspensions of relatively insoluble essential element salts is gradually becoming common, chiefly with the introduction of nano-technology approaches in agriculture. However, there is controversy about the effectiveness of such sparingly soluble nutrient sources as foliar fertilizers.
