Boron Uptake and Translocation in Plants
Description
This figure indicates boron root uptake and translocation pathways in plants. Boron plays key roles in plant metabolism and it is an essential microelement. Boron fertilizers can be applied to soil, or as a liquid foliar treatment.
Boric acid root uptake is adapted from “Routes of Water and Ion Transport in Plant Roots”, by BioRender.com (2023). Retrieved from https://app.biorender.com/biorender-template.
