Copper’s Role in Plants:
Copper is one of the micronutrients that is essential in plant nutrition in small quantities. This element plays a role in the oxidation reactions and treating of plants and activates enzymes such as (cytochrome oxidase, ascorbic acid oxidase, polyphenol oxidase, etc.). This element is involved in photosynthesis and formation of chlorophyll and protein synthesis, and it also plays a role in cell wall permeability and the process of treating nitrate to ammonium. Alfalfa, lettuce, onion, citrus, fruit trees and wheat plants are most sensitive to Copper deficiency. due to the lack of copper in the vegetative growth of plants; Photosynthesis, the production of carbohydrates and plant growth will decrease. Therefore, paying attention to this element plays an important role in increasing efficiency and feeding plants.
