Variability in Physiological Traits Reveals Boron Toxicity Tolerance in Aegilops Species
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Boron (B) is an important micronutrient required for the normal growth and development of plants. However, its excess in the soil causes severe damage to plant tissues, which affects the final yield. Wheat, one of the main staple crops, has been reported

Foliar-applied glyphosate substantially reduced uptake and transport of iron and manganese in sunflower (helianthus annuus L.) plants [PDF]
, 2006 Evidence clearly shows that cationic micronutrients in spray solutions reduce the herbicidal effectiveness of glyphosate for weed control due to the formation of metal-glyphosate complexes.

Foliar Magnesium supply increases the abundance of RuBisCO of Mg-deficient maize plants
Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2019 Magnesium is a vital macronutrient for plants and is involved in a series of essential physiological processes, e.g., carbohydrate partitioning and photosynthesis. The latter is strictly Mg-dependent, as Mg is the central atom of chlorophyll, and is also
