Summary Introduction
To explain: The process of chlorosis with respect to the iron deficiency in plants.
Introduction: Different combination of elements is required for the production of chlorophyll in plants. Deficiency in either of the elements can lead to yellowing of leaves, the process is called chlorosis. Yellowing of leaves decreases the photosynthetic rate in many plants.
