Bananen - Chlorosis

Symptome
Slow, stunted growth with 'rosetting' appearance. Thin and woody stems; petioles break easily. Broad longitudinal chlorotic bands with necrotic spots may occur on both sides of the midrib or along the leaf edge. Marginal necroses on oldest leaves coalesce, resulting in premature senescence. Younger leaves may show bluish to purple tint, especially on backside.

Gründe
Phosphorus deficiency. Excess nitrogen fertilization also leads to a blue-green color of the leaves. Manganese deficiency also causes marginal necrosis, but these have a darker color.

Gründe
Phosphorus deficiency

Phosphorus deficiency wird verschlimmert durch

  • Acidic or very alkaline (calcareaus) soils
  • Low organic matter
  • Cold or wet conditions
  • Crops with a poorly developed root system
  • Soils with low P reserves
  • Soils with a high phosphate capacity
  • Iron rich soils

Phosphor ist wichtig für

  • Part of nucleic acids, phospholipids and energy storing and transferring systems in plants
  • Important for root growth, flower development and fruit set
