Temporary nutrient deficiency - a difficult case for diagnosis and prognosis by plant analysis [PDF]
Plant analysis aims to either detect deficiency at the time of sampling (diagnosis) or predict its occurrence at a later stage of growth (prognosis). Its use is based on the presumption that the plant nutrient status will either be constant with plant ...
