| Abstract | ||||
| IT’S AN IMPORTANT micronutrient for plant nutrition, the availability of boron is important for growth parameters. The physiological role in plants controlled by boron and its affinity to environment, generally accommodated to excelling appreciating the assignment of boron in plants. Interdict of hydrogen ion deliver due to boron draw up and amends in plant substrate demonstrated boron association in cell wall actions it’s a unique micronutrient depends for common plant growth and optimum yield of crops. Its concentration in soil and plant not only varies with soil, plant, but also its overdose or defect, may affect the plant growth and production. Boron in soils gradually influence by several factors among of its, soil pH, organic matter, nutrient interactions, and plant species. Deficiencies of boron cause a reduction of yield production and quality. However, the toxicity was gradually observed in the presence of Ca application. Function of boron in plant observed in cell division, seed development and sugar transport in plant. Plant needs trace amount of boron for plant growth as compared with primary nutrients. The aim of this review is to understand the physiological duty of boron element in plants. | ||||
