- Chlorine - Wilted leaves, chlorosis, necrosis. Stunted, thickened roots or club-shaped roots near tips.
- Manganese - Chlorosis of youg leaves, necrosis between veins; smallest veins remain green. Disorganization of lamellar membrane.
- Boron - Death of stem and root apical meristems. Leaves twisted, pale at bases. Swollen, discolored root tips. Young tissues most affected.
- Zinc - Reduction in leaf size and length of internodes. Distorted leaf margins. Chlorosis. Older leaves most affected.
