Authors: R.E. Bir, J.E. Shelton and S.L. Warren
pp: 372-376
Abstract:
Magnesium is essential for plant growth. About 10% of the magnesium in green plants is in the pigment chlorophyll which gives plants their green color as well as their ability to change light energy to chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis. The remainder of magnesium in a plant has many uses. High concentrations of magnesium are usually found in parts of plants where lots of energy is required such as the growing tips of roots and shoots or areas where seeds are being formed.
