Pecan Cultivars Differ in Leaf Elemental Concentration of Normal and Mouse-ear Leaf Tissue1
Year: 1979
Type: article
Abstract: Leaflet mineral concentration of normal and mouse-eared leaflets differed for different cultivars of pecan ( Carya illinoensis (Wang.) K. Koch). Normal ‘Schley’ leaflets were higher in Mg, Cu, Cr and Pb than mouse-eared leaflets. Normal ‘Desirable’ leaflets were lower in Cr, Pb and Cd than mouse-eared leaflets. Normal ‘Mohawk’ leaflets were higher in Mn, Cu, Al, Cr, Pb, and Cd than mouse-eared leaflets. Normal ‘Wichita’ leaflets were lower in Ca, Mg, Zn, Cr and Pb than mouseeared leaflets. Normal ‘Mohawk’ leaflets had a higher Zn/Fe ratio and normal ‘Wichita’ had a lower Zn/Fe ratio than mouse-eared leaflets.
