Overview

This book is a comprehensive review of our knowledge of the reactions of zinc in soils, the uptake, transport and function of zinc in plants, the distribution, diagnosis and correction of zinc deficiency and zinc toxicity and the role of zinc in human and animal nutrition. There are 14 review papers written by leading international scientists. The book should prove of interest to scientists and advisers responsible for ensuring that plant growth is not limited by zinc deficiency or toxicity and that there are optimal zinc concentrations in plants for human and animal health.
