Remediation of Pear Iron Deficiency Chlorosis by Nanocellulose-iron Chelation and the Underlying Mechanism
Nanocrystal cellulose possesses a strong capability to chelate Fe due to its adsorptive properties. Iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) is a mineral disorder that remarkably weakens pear photosynthesis, causing declines in plant yields and quality. Conventional methods for controlling IDC generally lack...
