Reviews

`These are excellent reviews of boron in soils and plants and are well written. The book taken as a whole, brings the reader up-to-date on the current status of knowledge about boron as an essential plant nutrient...... It would make a very good reference text for university plant nutrition courses and should be on the reference shelf of all plant nutrition researchers.' George Hochmuth, University of Florida, Gainsville `Each chapter is well referenced, making this book a source-authority on boron in plants and soils. It would make a very good reference text for university plant nutrition courses and should be on the reference shelf of all plant nutrition researchers.' HortScience, 34:2 (1999)
